StrongHer - an Alcatel-Lucent employee diversity network

StrongHer is an employee networking and support group created by Alcatel-Lucent women in 2011 using our internal collaborative platform, Engage. Today the group has more 830 members (16% of whom are men) in more than 40 countries. In 2012, StrongHer organized some 50 events (mostly in France, India and the U.S.) on topics such as work/life balance, leadership and openness. It boosted its internal presence within Alcatel-Lucent by establishing new groups in Germany, France and Ireland, and by adding to its highly collaborative online community, which features more than 500 blog posts and discussions to date. It also developed its external presence by establishing contacts with other diversity-aware companies and by launching its own Twitter account (@Strong_Her).
