In a rapidly shifting global economic landscape, names like Clinton, Merkl, Sturgeon and May are flying the flag for women in leadership at the highest level. We\u2019ve seen a huge leap forward, and fast.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe trickle-down effect of the presence of strong female leaders in the public consciousness is positive for women in all industries but to promote a far reaching change that continuously challenges every sector \u2013 including packaging \u2013is what is needed for perpetual support. That\u2019s support for each other as women, support from organisations such as WIP and support from company sponsors and champions who believe in creating diversity.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Attracting and retaining female talent that may otherwise have disregarded the sector as a viable career route is key to driving change in the packaging sector as a whole. WIP facilitates this by connecting employees in roles across all material substrates, process and packaging applications and across the supply chain from designer to retailer.<\/p>\n<p>Giving women access to training and education that allows them to engage with the management, technical and leadership positions they would not historically have been appointed to is an empowering step forward in diversifying a traditionally male-dominated industry.<\/p>\n<h2><strong>Professional equality benefits everyone <\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>People within the RAJA Group work hard to ensure that the values it was founded on can be felt right across the entire group.\u00a0 In RAJA France for example, 51% of women are employed at management level, an exceptionally high percentage in today\u2019s economic world.<\/p>\n<p>Women occupy many key positions across the group too, with Dani\u00e8le leading the whole Group, as well as Nathalie Chapusot, as Managing Director Marketing-Sales &amp; E-commerce, Lorenza Zanardi as General Manager for Rajapack Italy and Gabriela Fabianova, as General Manager of Rajapack in the Czech Republic.<\/p>\n<p>Diversity and professional equality benefit everyone in their workplace.\u00a0 Businesses with gender equality generally perform better and are able to recruit the best candidates\u00a0as job seekers are more attracted to equal, fair workplaces.\u00a0 It can reduce companies\u2019 costs and wastage, lowering staff turnover, increasing employee morale and boosting productivity.<\/p>\n<p>We\u2019re proud of our values and continue to campaign for them today and into the future, ensuring all employees are treated fairly, regardless of their gender.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>\u201cEquality is the cornerstone of every
