Winning for Women at Lehman Brothers

" Valuing differences in thought, background and perspective is more than our philosophy: it is at the core of our business model. Each of our division heads is personally accountable to the CEO and must demonstrate each year that their senior leadership teams have attracted and retained the best people from the widest pools of talent. If, as a Firm, we get and keep a disproportionate share of talented people, we will maintain competitive edge."

"Encore sends a powerful message - both inside and outside the Firm - it tells women and men that taking an "off ramp" whether for reasons to do with childcare, eldercare or other factor, need not mean the end of your financial services career. It reinforces the fact that at Lehman Brothers we want the best people being the best they can be."  

Quote from Raj Ray, European Director of Diversity and Inclusion at Lehman Brothers
