Introduction
Culture of acceptance and openness
The diversity of our employees and business partners fuels the ingenuity that has driven Siemens’ success in the region for over 145 years. In all of our activities, actions and programs, we want to make the most of the diversity in our workforce in Australia and New Zealand. It is about enabling different ideas and approaches to thrive. It is about tapping the creative potential of all our employees to be as diverse as our customers and ultimately, the fabric of the societies we operate in. We establish an open work environment for all of our employees, regardless of cultural background, ethnicity, origin, sexual orientation, or gender identity, expression or characteristics.
In times of tremendous change, it is more important than ever to seek for diversity and inclusion – diversity has become a business imperative. So be the change you want to see in the world, like Gandhi said. The beauty of diversity and inclusion is simple to describe: you get remarkable results, more innovations, and with this it is a critical business driver and pushes digitalization.Natalia Oropeza, Chief Cybersecurity Officer & Chief Diversity and Inclusion Officer
