At Zendesk, women make up 37% of workforce in the APAC region
Wendy Johnstone
SVP & COO, Asia Pacific, Zendesk
"The pandemic has further accelerated the need to address gender equity within organizations - and it starts with businesses ensuring the fair treatment of women in alignment with their needs and ensuring they feel valued at their workplace. The reality is that the tech industry still struggles with representation. At Zendesk, women make up 37% of our workforce in the APAC region and 31% of our global leadership teams. While we’ve made great strides, we know there’s always more work to be done.
Change can only happen when gender equity is one of an organizations’ core corporate values and where supporting policies are agreed at the top and rolled out across the entire organization. That’s why at Zendesk we have a broad range of practices and policies that focus on intentional hiring, interview bias training, talent management and development programs and employee community groups. The goal is to empower our workforce to collaborate with each other, seek out qualified women for roles across the company, and create a space where women can be themselves, form supportive relationships and reach their full potential."
