ManpowerGroup Named One of America’s Top Corporations for Women’s Business Enterprises for 5th Consecutive Year

Women’s Business Enterprise Council Recognizes ManpowerGroup for Innovative Best Practices in Creating Partnerships with Female Entrepreneurs

MILWAUKEE, March 1, 2013 /PRNewswire/ – For the 5th consecutive year, ManpowerGroup has been recognized by the Women’s Business Enterprise National Council (WBENC) as one of America’s Top Corporations for Women’s Business Enterprises (WBEs).

This is the only national award honoring corporations for world class programs that level the playing field for WBEs to compete for corporate business.

ManpowerGroup is one of just 32 corporations receiving the award, and one of only 3 to receive the award 5 times.

ManpowerGroup will accept the award during a ceremony at the WBENC Summit & Salute to Women’s Business Enterprises taking place 13-14 March 2013, in Baltimore.

“Women business leaders have a profound impact on U.S. businesses and are essential to helping move the economy forward,” said Jorge Perez, senior vice president, Manpower North America.

“ManpowerGroup takes an active role in cultivating the leadership skills of women and diverse business owners to enhance equal access to opportunities and success, and we’re honored to join the ranks of the WBENC honorees again this year.”

ManpowerGroup’s robust supplier diversity initiatives set the industry standard for engagement with women, minorities, veterans, disadvantaged, and small business owners.

Particularly important to the program is the annual supplier diversity roundtable, which marked its 10^th anniversary in 2012.

The roundtable is considered an unsurpassed development opportunity for diverse suppliers in the staffing industry.

Programs like the roundtable foster collaboration, ensuring that ManpowerGroup and the companies it partners with are leveraging the most innovative strategies to help clients win.

“One of the tenets of ManpowerGroup’s TAPFIN managed service provider (MSP) offering is to help promote diversity from a supplier perspective,” said Kip Wright, senior vice president, ManpowerGroup Solutions and member of the ManpowerGroup supplier diversity executive steering committee.

“Diversity not only helps improve the quality of the services we provide, but it more accurately reflects the mix of resources in the market. WBENC has long stood for those same principles, and we are extremely pleased to receive this recognition.”
