San Jose, North America, December 13, 2019: Zensar, a leading digital solutions and technology services company that specializes in partnering with organizations across industries on their digital transformation journey, announced it participated in the ‘Women in the Workplace’ report for 2019. Since 2015, McKinsey & Company and LeanIn.Org have published this report annually to give companies and employees the information they need to advance women and improve gender diversity within their organizations.

Sandeep Kishore, Chief Executive Officer and Managing Director, Zensar said, “Women are the trailblazers in any organization and we are focused on building a balanced leadership across the company. It is encouraging to see our focused efforts been recognized in this report. We look forward to working towards investing in our women talent across all our locations.”

Vivek Ranjan, Senior Vice-President and CHRO, Zensar commented, “At Zensar, a significant proportion of our women associates form our top talent. We have made concerted efforts towards creating an increasing number of women leaders across all functions at all our worldwide locations. To be included in this report underlines our initiatives towards this important sustainable corporate strategy.”

At Zensar, our women workforce happens to be one of our consistent top talent. We have worked toward creating an increasing number of women leaders across all functions at all our worldwide locations. To be included in this report underlines our initiatives towards this important corporate strategy.”

Zensar has created clear career paths for its existing and new women associates. To bring back experienced mid-level women workforce after career breaks, the program, ‘Enliven’, was launched. This initiative focuses on identifying women in technology in India who have taken career breaks and are wanting to return to work, providing internship opportunities and onboarding them full time with relevant upskilling avenues.
In America, which is the company’s biggest market, women associates have been hired at manager and senior positions, making it one of the key areas of focus for the HR function.

Diversity & Inclusion (D&I) Centre of Excellence (CoE) in Zensar was formed with the objective to anchor and lead Inclusion practices through a Global D&I Council with representatives from a diverse group of our global workforce. One of the key tenets is to represent Zensar’ s inclusion practices in the industry and create awareness on the importance of having an inclusive work environment. Global D&I Council is guided by an Advisory Board, on initiatives that are of high impact to the society, with a direct business impact on the success of the company. Keeping aware of global standards, knowledge exchange as well as creating D&I champions across the company is one of the key focus areas of the council.
