Otis Commits to Achieving Gender Parity by 2030
Otis Worldwide Corp. has joined the Paradigm for Parity® coalition, committing to closing the gender gap in its leadership ranks, the company announced on July 22. As a member of the coalition, the OEM vows to achieve a 50% level of women among its executives by 2030 and will do so by employing Paradigm for Parity's "5-Point Action Plan." Otis President and CEO Judy Marks participated in a virtual signing event with Sandra Beach Lin, co-chair of Paradigm for Parity. "This commitment is welcome progress for all 69,000 Otis colleagues and a major milestone for our industry,” Marks said. In adopting the 5-Point Action Plan, Farmington, Connecticut-based Otis commits to eliminating, or minimizing, unconscious bias in the workplace; increasing the number of women in senior operating roles; measuring targets and maintaining accountability through regular progress reports; basing career progress on business results and performance; and providing sponsors, not just mentors, to women well-positioned for long-term success. Paradigm for Parity describes itself as an association of business leaders committed to ensuring “women and men have equal power, status and opportunity."
