The AmCham Abu Dhabi Women in Business Committee is proud to announce ExxonMobil as a signatory of WOMEN ACHIEVE, an innovative program which promotes the professional advancement of women. WOMEN ACHIEVE was developed by AmCham Abu Dhabi’s Women in Business Committee to encourage companies and organizations to offer women more opportunities to advance to positions of greater responsibility and leadership.
“ExxonMobil has enjoyed a strong partnership with Abu Dhabi for more than 70 years. We understand the incredible impact associated with investing in opportunities for women. Here, in the UAE, we see great role models who are strong supporters of the vision of the country’s wise leaders to promote the development and engagement of women in business and the society. So for us, joining AmCham’s Women Achieve program was a welcomed opportunity to further promote and support opportunities for developing capabilities and opportunities for women in business,” said Morten Mauritzen, Lead Country Manager for ExxonMobil companies in the UAE.
