DIVERSITY DRIVES INNOVATION
A company that embraces gender equality and
diversity, where everyone is given an equal
opportunity, is also more likely to be innovative
and protable.
One goal is that at least 30 per cent of managers
who set wages at year-end 2015 will be female.
Saab attaches great importance to strong female
candidates in the internal talent management pro-
cess and in recruiting. At least one woman must be
interviewed for all managerial positions. Saab also
has a special mentoring programme for women.
e focus on female leaders has produced
results, and at year-end 2014 more than 25 per cent
of managers at Saab were female, compared to
13per cent when the goal was set in 2007. In total,
22per cent of Saab’s employees are female.
Diversity means respecting everyone equally
regardless of age, gender, sexual orientation,
religious belief, disability or ethnicity. It also
means mixing people with dierent experiences
and educational backgrounds.
All those who work with recruiting receive
diversity training, and diversity is a parameter in
leadership training and the global recruitment
process. People who are open to dierent perspec-
tives and views will make the company more inno-
vative and lead to better business.
Around 60 nationalities are represented among
Saab’s employees, and a central part of the growth
strategy is to maintain a presence in local markets
around the world.
