Stuart Rose (M)
Chief Executive Officer Pacific
ISS’s commitment to the advancement of women in the Pacific region will be further strengthened by the implementation of the UN Women’s Empowerment Principles. Our pursuit of inclusion, diversity, engagement and equity for all our Placemakers is a strategic imperative which will be an ongoing and continuous journey, translating into improved results year on year. Our firm leadership endorsement will support the design of an enabling culture where women are empowered to be heard, are able to grow and can reach their full potential. Gender balance at a leadership level, pay parity throughout the organisation and equal opportunity to succeed will all form part of our equity landscape, ensuring we inspire, attract and retain female talent. This is an exciting point in our cultural transformation and we welcome the opportunity to strive for excellence in gender equity. I challenge every employee to be a change agent as we embed the Women’s Empowerment Principles into our organisational DNA and ensure we move beyond aspiration to achievement.
