Sponsor Global Summit of Women 2014
& 2015
 Technip Women’s networks and
regional Gender Diversity Councils

 McKinsey Women Matter Report 2013: corporate culture is twice as important
as individual mindsets in determining whether women believe that they can
succeed
 Key issues identified:
 lack of awareness among men of the specific difficulties for women to reach the top.
 diversity in leadership and communications styles is an important factor with the perception
among women that female leadership styles don’t “fit in” the prevailing styles.
 roadblock is the “anytime, anywhere” performance model, which is seen by both genders to
be more penalizing for women and puts men at an advantage.
 The research reaffirms the importance of implementing an ecosystem of
measures, while stressing that the measures must be supported by a
transformed, more inclusive culture which welcomes a diversity of leadership
styles and performance models.

A Culture Change journey
 Numbers alone will not bring about a change in culture
“There is a big difference between diversity and inclusiveness.
Diversity is about counting the numbers. Inclusiveness is about making the numbers
count. Whether it is about individuals or companies or countries, the conversation
has to shift from talking about whether diversity affects performance to talking about
the conditions under which you’d expect diversity to have a positive effect on
performance”
Professor Boris Groysberg, Harvard Business School
 We need to create an organization where people genuinely
understand and appreciate the value of gender diverse teams
 However critical mass is important – one voice is rarely heard,
nor two – but once it gets to 3 there is a real difference

Editor's Notes

  • #6: It is interesting to note that the top 4 positions do not have corresponding roles on the board of directors and therefore may be less likely to lead to a board position (pwc report).
  • #7: In 2013: Statoil 37% Lundin Petroleum 32% Total 30% BG Group 28% CGGV 26% Technip 25% Amec 25% Aker Solutions 25% SBM Offshore 20% ENI 17% Petrobras 16% Petrofac 13% Saipem 11% Vallourec 11% Chiyoda 11%

  • #9: T Parmentier We have excellent female representation at the Board level. At the Global Summit of Women this year Technip received a Corporate Champions Award in relation to this. This is in recognition of the fact that, with 5 women out of 12 (42%) on the Board, Technip has surpassed 30% female representation in its Board members which is considered the minimum/ideal "critical mass" of women, when their voices have greater impact on board policies and decisions.
  • #10: T Parmentier Gender Diversity is not HR’s job alone – it is a strategic business priority: Reflected in the fact that we have 2 Excom Members on the Steering Committee myself and K Boe as well as other members who are close to the business and who are all here today
