Boeing International Corporation signs Women Achieve, an initiative to support the advancement of women

The AmCham Abu Dhabi Women in Business Committee is proud to announce that Boeing International Corporation is the latest signatory of Women Achieve, an innovative program that promotes the professional advancement of women.

Women Achieve was developed by AmCham Abu Dhabi's Women in Business Committee to encourage companies and organizations to offer women more opportunities to advance to positions of greater responsibility and leadership. 

As a supporter of the Women Achieve program, Boeing has pledged to ensure that it provides an environment where women can further develop their leadership skills and excel in their respective areas of expertise at Boeing by ensuring that the company's inclusive organizational culture remains true in the Middle East. 

"It has long been part of our culture to empower women with the skills and tools necessary for career development and growth at Boeing and pledging to enhance our existing programs by supporting Women Achieve is a natural next step for us," said Jeffrey Johnson, President Boeing Middle East. 

"As a company, we recognize that our strength and our competitive advantage are and always will be our people. We value the skills, strengths and perspectives of our diverse team and will continue to look for opportunities to foster their growth and development within Boeing."

Established in January 2013, Women Achieve focuses on seven key ideals that companies undertake to guide them towards developing a work environment that is conducive for the professional growth of women.

The ideals include encouraging women to grow through training, shadowing, coaching, mentorship and internship programs, to consider female candidates for new opportunities and support 'rising stars' into leadership positions. Women Achieve also encourages the induction of women to serve on boards of different organizations and promotes the importance of fair remuneration for female employees. 

Participation in Women Achieve is open to entities of all sizes. Companies that are interested can elect to become signatories by contacting AmCham Abu Dhabi. Women Achieve signatories receive a certificate of acknowledgement from AmCham Abu Dhabi and are eligible to use the Women Achieve seal on their communication collateral.
