In 2021, the Women's BRG (WBRG) mentorship program celebrated 10 years of mentorship and career growth. Since the launch of the initiative, the program has reached over 700 mentees, 116 mentors and 14 mentor advisors. Conecta Mos, an initiative of the Multicultural BRG that focuses on LatinX leadership, offers a mentorship program that pairs mentors and mentees to discuss career goals and advancement strategies. SUPPORTING OUR LGBTQ+ COLLEAGUES AND COMMUNITY BE COUNTED As we continue to expand our data disclosure practices, we launched the Be Counted initiative in 2020 in the U.S. This initiative asked U.S. employees to voluntarily self-identify as members of the LGBTQ+ community. Our senior management and Board of Directors received the data in an aggregated and anonymized form. We are using the data to review and boost leadership development programs, recruitment, employee benefits and more. L'AUTRE CERCLE CHARTER In January 2022, we took another step toward formalizing our support of the LGBTQ+ community in France and on a global scale by signing the L'Autre Cercle Charter. The charter focuses on creating an inclusive environment, ensuring equal rights and treatment for employees, supporting employees who are targets of discrimination and measuring progress and sharing best practices to enact change in the workplace. We are excited to join the other signatories in a shared commitment to support all employees, regardless of sexual orientation or gender identity. 1 As of June 2021.
