Promoting gender diversity and inclusive work culture

Eva Mattheeussen, Head of Human Resources, DHL Global Forwarding Middle East & Africa

Developing a future-ready workforce where diversity is celebrated is one of our strategic focus at DHL and a top priority. Personally, I think workplaces have become more inclusive over the years, and I am optimistic that diversity and equal opportunities for all will continue to feature highly in the boardroom agenda. Through our Women@DHL Global Forwarding and Freight initiative, we will continue to encourage dialogues, run mentoring programs, promote talented women to leadership roles and create a workplace culture that is inclusive and attractive for them.

Most engaging

Recognised as a top employer in the region and bagging the Stevie Awards are definitely some of the highlights! Equally, receiving positive feedback from colleagues and seeing the many countries owning and implementing the initiatives is an added vote of confidence that we are doing the right thing.
