Today marks two years since the +D program was launched, Tecpetrol’s drive to foster greater gender, cultural and generational diversity in the workplace. The company is firm in its conviction that the attributes and unique qualities of each of its employees help to build a stronger and more resilient team, and that dialogue encourages talent to grow. In this note, we review the milestones of an initiative that is going full steam ahead.
As part of the efforts carried out by the Fundación PROA together with the different companies from the Techint Group aimed at encouraging people to continue enjoying art even in the pandemic, the "Proa A Distancia" program invites people to join four new virtual classes that you can access from anywhere in the country.
María Laura García and Rodrigo Varela spoke at the Innovation Forum for Learning and Development. They highlighted the importance of measuring the effectiveness of training and transferring lessons learned to the workplace. They also presented the Simulators project designed to develop Business Acumen in young talents.
The Ambassadors initiative is proving to be very popular at Tecpetrol. So far, 39 employees from different areas have immersed themselves in the world of LinkedIn to upgrade their profiles, taking advantage of all the tools offered by this professional network to become—why not? —influencers.
A stronger team
Our +diversity program aims to empower women to fulfill their talent and potential, and reaffirms our commitment to equal opportunities. Today, 42% of Tecpetrol's young professionals are women. Our objective is to develop this seedbed so that they can grow and add value from leadership roles.
The program embraces broader issues, as it tackles diversity from all angles capable of adding value to the business. It seeks to raise awareness about biases that limit the growth and contribution of certain groups of people within the organization, and to create tools to help everyone to develop as fully as possible in each area of their lives.
