Capgemini company Leadership programme:-

Capgemini company partnership created opportunities for employees to participate in leadership

programs, symposiums and networking events to further develop their careers. Due to the success of
these external programs and events, Capgemini launched their very own ITSMF Leadership
Development Program. In partnership with ITSMF we designed a custom curriculum giving more
participants the chance for professional development.

Capgemini North America Corporate Responsibility Director, Janet Pope, shed light on the importance of
creating the ITSMF Leadership Development Program, “I work with a non-profit that always says
‘what’s good for women is good for everyone,’ and I believe it.   We started the ITSMF leadership
program 100% due to the successes that we’ve had over the last 12 years with our Women’s Leadership
Development Program.  It was important to me to leverage a best practice that was supporting one
diverse population with development, retention, and visibility to leadership to enable another
underrepresented community.  

The ITSMF Leadership Development Program is structured as an in-person, instructor-led course offered
over two days in conjunction with our Talent Acceleration Week, a week-long learning and development
workshop with various courses that draws over 500 participants. Facilitators were comprised of leaders
with over 20 years of business experience and helped guide participants throughout their learning
journey, with an emphasis on evaluating the present and preparing for the future- all through the unique
cultural perspective of each member of the program. The ITSMF Leadership Development Program
provides a new opportunity for Capgemini to invest in our African and African American employees with
programs geared towards them.
