Sandra Sims-Williams Chief Diversity Officer Chief Diversity Officer
Greetings!
With every new year comes new opportunity, and personally, I have pledged to approach this year with renewed energy, a positive attitude, and a doubling down on my purpose. My purpose has and will continue to be bridging differences by bringing people together in dialogue in both my personal and professional lives. Dialogue helps build understanding and trust and is core to many of the programs offered by Publicis Groupe’s Talent Engagement & Inclusion team. Specifically, our professional development opportunities bring people together from across our agency network for dialogue with the goal of creating ever more engaging and inclusive work environments for all. Much of the same can be said about our business resource groups (BRGs) which have a long-standing tradition of breaking down the walls of agency silos and bringing people together.
On the topic of BRGs I am pleased to announce the launch of Publicis Groupe’s newest BRG offering in the New York market. Co-led by Alexa Ciccarelli (Saatchi & Saatchi Wellness) and Margaret Dryden (Publicis Health), GenNEXT is geared toward Publicis Groupe’s young professionals. The group is looking to build a board with representatives from across all the agencies represented in the New York market, so please consider lending your time and your support. For more information about the group and its goals, be sure to check out GenNEXT’s first contribution to the BRG Updates section of this quarterly.
As you know from previous issues of this quarterly, professional development opportunities are a core offering of my team. Regardless of where we all fall within the hierarchy of Publicis Groupe’s structure, I am a firm believer in continuing education and idea sharing. This is equally true of me and my colleagues in the C-suite. For this reason, last month I convened the CEO roundtable in New York to provide our agency’s leaders an opportunity to discuss the importance of straight talk in helping to build ever stronger and more inclusive agencies. The second portion of the CEO roundtable provided a forum for CEOs to share what they are each doing in their respective agencies to foster more engaging work environments. Truly the experience was the embodiment of Publicis Groupe’s motto Viva la Difference! and of that I am tremendously proud.
May 2017 bring you all things good, and don’t forget to leverage this publication to make the most of your experience working for Publicis Groupe.
Warm regards,
Sandra

Mike Slagh on Hiring Military Veterans
Mike Slagh Founder of Shift
Shift is a recruiting pipeline that gives companies direct access to exceptional military veterans and helps to translate military experiences into skills and traits that make sense to private sector hiring managers. Mike Slagh, Shift’s founder, was invited to address Publicis Groupe’s Q4 Talent Engagement & Inclusion Council. Afterward, Publicis Groupe agencies signed on to pilot the Shift platform. Through Shift, military veterans were also invited to network with our talent during the Publicis Groupe, SapientRazorfish, and Adobe co- hosted networking event at SXSW in Austin. Below is a thought leader piece written by Mike that also appears on the organization’s website.
*** A little over a year ago, I sat in the Transition Assistance Program like many transitioning service members who had gone before me. The program, known as “TAP,” is a weeklong course the Department of Labor provides to 250,000 soon-to-be veterans each year in an effort to prepare them for civilian life. The overall thrust is building a set of core skills like résumé writing and interview tactics, but it’s a one-size-fits-all solution for an incredibly diverse workforce.
As someone who lived and breathed technology projects in and out of the military for the past several years, I wondered why there wasn’t more focus on translating skills the military teaches everyone: technical literacy and operational proficiency. Tasks like creating plans to push hundreds of people into foreign countries, driving submarines underwater, and training to disarm nuclear weapons build these skills at breathtaking scale.
It’s not really up for debate that every company is becoming a software company — places where technical literacy and operational proficiency are critically important. So why is it so challenging for veterans to find meaningful employment when they take off the uniform? American companies have committed to hiring hundreds of thousands of veterans over the next few years.
What can we do to make veteran hiring easier? A couple months ago, we partnered with Expa to help answer this question for the massive scale of service members who depart each year. Expa is building a global network of entrepreneurs, and they identified military service as a compelling background that could be advantageous to fast-growing companies.
After interviewing executives, talent professionals, and recruiters at the best companies, here are the most common pain points at companies who want to hire more veterans, but are struggling:
• Skill Translation: It’s really difficult to tell what’s going on in a military résumé. Great experiences are often lost in translation.
4 • Access: Direct sourcing platforms like Hired and Entelo are the new workflow for recruiters. They’d rather chat with veterans directly than have to do it via a third party or job board.
• Availability and Preferences: A quick search for veterans on LinkedIn yields tens of thousands of results. Who is staying in the military? Who’s getting out soon? Who wants to join my operations team in Austin? It’s impossible to know.
Solving those pain points formed the basis of the first release of Shift.
“What if opportunities came to veterans, and not the other way around?”
When veterans sign up, we start by sending a weekly email with curated opportunities: education, re-training, internships at growing companies, and companies who want them on the team right now. Behind each email are organizations that have expressed interest in sharing specific opportunities with veteran job seekers.
When veterans are ready to take the next step, they can “go live” on Shift to send a notification to every employer we work with. We work with 100 new veterans with exceptional backgrounds each month and add them to the direct access area on Shift.
A mutual understanding of skills and access to opportunity are the only things standing between veterans and their next great mission. We’re laser-focused on translation, availability, and access. Simple, but powerful concepts!

Publicis Groupe Serves as the Presenting Sponsor of the South by Southwest Job Market
Nearly 100,000 people descend on Austin in mid-March for South by Southwest Interactive, an annual gathering known to attract those who are on the cutting-edge of technology and digital creativity. To take advantage of such a large pool of high-caliber talent convening in one place from around the globe, Publicis Groupe served as the presenting sponsor of SXSW’s Job Market for the fourth consecutive year. In addition to having recruiters on hand from across all four solution hubs, Publicis Groupe’s Power of One positioning was further underscored through a series of fireside chats involving both Publicis Groupe talent and partners. Fireside chat titles included: How to Make Strategic Career Moves after Military Service; The Story Behind the Power of One; How to Turn Passion Projects into Career Opportunities; the Unexpected Path; Beyond the Daily Grind; and Supporting Women and Families in the Industry.
As the only holding company with a presence at the SXSW Job Market, candidates saw our network as a strong force in the industry. Sponsoring the SXSW Job Market was an excellent opportunity for Publicis Groupe’s agencies and their recruiters to connect with a highly desirable pool of talent.
SXSW also provided an opportunity for Publicis Groupe ambassadors to connect in person. Publicis Groupe, SapientRazorfish, and Adobe co- hosted a networking event at Rattle Inn which welcomed some 200 Publicis Groupe colleagues, partners, and clients from around the world.
A special shout-out goes out to the team at SapientRazorfish and Second Story for supporting the development of our collective presence. Thank you to Emily Van Norden, Grace Friedman, Keri Elmsly, Jack Butcher, and Paige Kenmore for your incredible partnership and collaboration.

Publicis Groupe Agencies Show Up in Force at the Morehouse Marketing Conclave
For the third year in a row, Publicis Groupe agencies attended the Morehouse Marketing Conclave, a student-run two-day event that draws students not only from the Atlanta University Center Consortium (AUC = Morehouse College, Spelman College, and Clark Atlanta University) but from other marketing programs in the south and southeastern U.S., too.
This year, seven Publicis Groupe agencies attended the Morehouse Marketing Conclave. Publicis Groupe hosted a networking reception off campus where students, alumni, and faculty had a chance to mingle with agency ambassadors from the different agencies. Publicis Groupe ambassadors attended the career fair the next day, where they met over 400 students. This relationship gets stronger year after year and is further cemented by the ongoing commitment from agency partners who are eager to talk about and recruit for opportunities within our industry.
On his experience attending the Morehouse Marketing Conclave, Ross Grimes (VP, Media Director / Multicultural at Starcom) commented: “As an African-American man who has benefitted from diversity recruiting and personal mentorship in this industry, events like the Morehouse Marketing Conclave afford me a tangible opportunity to “pay it forward,” while also helping cultivate the next generation of diverse talent within our industry. Publicis’ continued commitment to recruiting underserved and underrepresented ethnic minorities is a big differentiator for the network, and one that I hope continues to receive senior support.”
Recruiters from DigitasLBi, Leo Burnett, Moxie, MSLGROUP, Publicis Media (Mediavest | Spark & Starcom), Sapient, and TeamOne were all in attendance at the Morehouse Marketing Conclave.

SapientRazorfish Achieves Gender Equality in Hiring and Earns Top Honors as a Great Workplace for Women and the LGBT Community
2016 was a year of significant change for SapientRazorfish in more ways than one. In addition to the merger, we made gender diversity history in our hiring numbers. In 2016, 51% of Sapient new hires across business units were female! This monumental win was also reflected in Executive Hiring where 50% of VP-level hires were women as well as 47% of Director-level hires. Even Campus experienced this exciting shift with women making up 56% of the 2016 North America Junior Associate class.
We also received the exciting news that SapientRazorfish earned a place on Great Places to Work, Canada’s list of Best Workplaces for Women! Coming in at 18th on the list, we’re honored to rank among some of the most recognizable brands in the world. This quarter, it’s clear our efforts to transform diversity of thought into action are paying off, and we couldn’t be more encouraged or motivated to continue moving the needle in 2017.
We’re not only making headway with women, either. It was announced at the end of last year that SapientNitro, Razorfish, and Digitas received a perfect score on the Human Rights Campaign’s 2017 Corporate Equality Index, making Publicis.Sapient officially one of the best places to work for LGBT Equality. Our ranking reflects our zero-tolerance policy for discrimination while the recognition is a testament to our commitment to creating an open, inclusive culture for all. We’re thrilled at this By Farnaz Haghseta & opportunity to celebrate our people and their tireless contributions to making all of Grace Friedman Publicis.Sapient a great place to work.
Finally, in addition to achieving gender parity among our Junior Associate class, the SapientRazorfish Campus team renewed their multicultural hiring efforts, thanks to our sponsorship of AAF’s Most Promising Multicultural Students and Mosaic Career Fair, plus partnerships with historically black colleges, Morehouse and Spelman. These events have quickly become hiring and employer brand staples. While it’s only our second year participating, 2017 marks the beginning of an ongoing partnership with these important organizations and schools. We’re also thrilled to be taking on a MAIP fellow in our New York office this summer, having extended an offer to one of the fantastic students enrolled in the program.

Saatchi & Saatchi NY Sponsored The 14th Annual Run & Shoot Martha’s Vineyard African American Film Festival
The 14th annual Run & Shoot Martha’s Vineyard African American Film Festival recently concluded its proceedings. The festival, which features the work of emerging filmmakers, has become a magnet, as well as a beacon, for African-American filmmakers. The MVAAFF provides a key platform for African-American filmmakers to share their artistic expressions through film. It is also a space in which filmic narratives focused on African- American history are highlighted and has thus proven to be an effective means of sharing previously unknown black histories to various audiences.
For the 8th consecutive year, Saatchi & Saatchi NY participated as a sponsor and awarded the NOTHING IS IMPOSSIBLE Achievement in Film Award to two recipients: By Danica Rosen 9 Rides is the second feature film from writer/director/editor Matthew A. Cherry, and the first feature film to ever be captured on an iPhone 6s in 4K. 9 Rides is a compelling narrative that follows an Uber driver on New Year’s Eve who gets life-changing news. Through his encounters with 9 different groups of passengers, we see how he works through his personal dilemmas and challenges.
Syl Johnson: Anywhere the Wind Blows is a portrait of an overlooked yet hugely influential African-American musician of the 1960s whose career was seemingly over by the late 1970s. But, with the advent of hip-hop, artists including Run-DMC, Public Enemy, and the Wu-Tang Clan sampled his songs, and his music enjoyed an incredible resurgence in recent years. This documentary is a testament to how talent and perseverance can prevail in the end.

Cherry reflected, “I personally feel that the Martha’s Vineyard African American Film Festival is one of the premiere festivals in the country, and they do an amazing job with their film selection and taking care of the filmmakers. It is always an honor to have a film play there and as a black filmmaker, it is important to play festivals that cater to your audience as well as the Sundances, SXSWs, TriBeCas, etc. And winning the NOTHING IS IMPOSSIBLE Award from Saatchi & Saatchi is just incredible.”
It is our pleasure to show support and spread the word of the excellent work this film festival showcases year after year.

Publicis Groupe Sponsors the Most Promising Multicultural Student Program
For the past ten years, Publicis Groupe has proudly supported the AAF’s Most Promising Multicultural Students Program (MPMSP). This year, more than 50 of the most talented college juniors and seniors aspiring to join our industry came to New York from all over the country. The nomination and selection process for the MPMS program is rigorous, which is why Publicis Groupe recruiters are always happy to attend and meet eager, young, and innovative talent.
As part of the program, Publicis Groupe recruiters attended a career fair during which they had a chance to formally meet students and review portfolios. This was followed by a leadership panel featuring some of Publicis Groupe’s senior agency leaders. The panel offered insight across disciplines about what it’s like working in our industry. Following the panel discussion, students had a chance to have up-close-and-personal candid discussions in small groups facilitated by each of the panelists.
Commenting on this year’s Most Promising Multicultural Students Program, Michele Bolanowski, who is an Associate Director for People & Culture at Leo Burnett, commented: “This year’s MPMS class was unmatched. This group of young professionals has the creativity and desire to change the world.

16 UpcomingBusiness ResourceProfessional Group Development (BRG) OpportunitiesUpdates & Events
Before I go into what our BRG is doing in the new year, let me start with an important announcement and introduction. Following two years of dedicated service to Égalité as both National Lead and National Co-Lead, Devin Owens stepped down from Égalité’s leadership and has pursued another opportunity outside of Publicis Groupe. I would like to take a moment to thank Devin for all of his hard work and commitment in growing Égalité during his leadership tenure. Joining me as the new Égalité Co-Chair across all our chapters is Donnie Young, Associate Experience Director at Sapient.Razorfish. Donnie comes from the Chicago chapter where he started as a member, rising up through the ranks as local board member in charge of communications, most recently serving as the Metro Co-Lead for Égalité Chicago. “I’m so excited to be working alongside my friend Alicia, as we work with chapters new and old worldwide to make this Égalité’s most successful year yet” Donnie commented as he assumed this new role. I couldn’t be more excited to have Donnie join me at the helm of Égalité because he brings years of passion and leadership in his local market and now can grow and scale his experience across all our chapters. Alicia Case Publicis Health, New York Égalité is making a name for itself near and far. This March, Égalité Chicago’s Égalité National Co-Lead pro bono campaign, Prep for Love, for the AIDS Foundation of Chicago, received the award for Best Pro Bono Campaign at the PR News 2017 CSR Awards in Washington, DC. These awards recognize the best-of-the-best for corporate social responsibility. We couldn’t be prouder to receive this award for work that was done as a collective chapter in Chicago.
And one of our newest chapters, Égalité UK, is making waves as it’s currently shortlisted at the NatWest British LGBT Awards for Best Network Group. The chapter will be attending the ceremony in London on May 12 hoping to bring home the award. Let’s root them on as they are up against tough competition. A British LGBT Awards spokesperson commented: “This year saw the highest number of nominations the NatWest British LGBT Awards have ever received for LGBT+ Network Group. Égalité UK’s inclusion in the Top 10 LGBT+ Network Group category, despite tough competition, shows both the strength of work that the network has done in a short space of time, and also the strength of the initial evidence submitted.”
The strength of our name is what’s continuing chapter growth. We’re meeting with Donnie Young, Associate Publicis Groupe employees all over the world who want a chapter in their local Experience Director at market. Right now, discussions are being held in our neck of the woods in Austin Sapient.Razorfish, replaces and Toronto, and as far as away as South Africa, the Philippines, Singapore, Brazil, Devin Owens as National and France.

Q1 was a whirlwind of activity for VivaWomen of Color. We previously shared our goal of progression and growing our membership body, and to date, I can confirm that we are on track in delivering against those goals.
Our leadership sisterhood is growing with the addition of our newest market leads: Arnetta Whiteside (Zenith) and Sufia Farha (Publicis Worldwide) in New York and Keisha Hooks (Mediavest | Spark) in Chicago.
Our communication channels are increasing activity with VivaWomen of Color’s most recent social campaign in honor of Black History Month. Social content under the hashtag #VWOCBHM17 celebrated Black Women who broke barriers in media such as Bozoma Saint John, Ida B. Wells, Marley Dias, and Morgan Debaun.
We relaunched the official VivaWomen of Color Twitter (@PGVivaWOC) at the Black Enterprise Women of Power Summit, which secured high profile engagement from Tiffany Dufu of Levo League, Black Enterprise; Elaine Welteroth of Teen Vogue; and Bozoma Saint John of Apple, to name a few. Additionally, it provided a channel to communicate with and amplify the voices of our members, such as VP Director of Talent Engagement and Inclusion at DigitasLBi Ronnie Dickerson-Stewart’s “72 Hours in Phoenix: The Game Changing 2017 Black Enterprise Women of Power Summit” article, available on our official Twitter and Facebook page. Britany Rickett Starcom, Chicago Prior to departing for Black Enterprise Women of Power Summit, VivaWomen VivaWomen of Color National of Color Chicago collaborated with Leo Burnett’s Multicultural Employee Co-Lead Resource Group (MERG), Publicis Groupe’s Men of Color Alliance (MOCA), and Starcom’s Black Employee Resource Group to present, “The Revolution Will Be Advertised” panel and exhibition in honor of Black History Month.

As we continue to recruit VivaTech leaders and activate programming across the country, we wanted to dedicate our fi rst quarter submission to news from the front lines of technology, innovation, and creativity. VivaTech members Katelyn Bell and Sabrina Yee (Starcom) were in attendance at SXSW Interactive in Austin where they participated in a mini fi reside chat at Publicis Groupe’s booth in the Job Market. In the chat, titled “Starcom: Beyong the Daily Grind,” Katelyn and Sabrina provided prospective job seekers a glimpse into life at Starcom. Below in their words you will also fi nd their personal account of what they saw and heard at SXSW.

This past week, we attended the SXSW Interactive conference. We focused on attending sessions related to women in tech and data security, as well as exhibits about emerging technologies. We want to highlight a few overarching Kelly Kokonas and important themes we took from the conference. Starcom, Chicago VivaTech National Co-Lead Many sessions and exhibits focused on the idea of using technology for “good” and connecting people with experiences happening around the globe. We watched a virtual reality short fi lm about the modern-day concentration camps in Burma called Behind the Fence. The fi lm created an experience for the viewer that felt like they were in the camp fi rsthand. One of the sessions we attended was a panel of infl uential people leading social justice revolutions in Cuba, Afghanistan, Eritrea, and Syria. They are all using technology like the internet, cell phones, and encryption to save lives in their countries, as well as to spread information about their causes.
Another prevalent topic throughout the conference was the importance of empowering women in the technology industry. According to one of our panels, women hold only about 5% of leadership positions at tech companies, but those companies with female leaders see about 225% higher earnings. Many infl uential women discussed their experiences in STEM fi elds and how it was often discouraging to be the only female in the room. They are taking steps Stacey McKeever with groups like UN Women to empower the younger generation of women to Team One dominate in STEM fi elds. VivaTech National Co-Lead

28 A final theme we encountered was our lack of data privacy and the potential danger this has on social liberties. Politics was an underlying note throughout the data security sessions. Experts stated repeatedly that U.S. citizens’ online data is not private and that laws on the subject of privacy are outdated. The government has not been able to keep up with the rapidly changing internet landscapes and the amount of personal data available on these platforms. With the rise of IoT (Internet of Things), smart cities, and constant connectivity, opportunities for data breaches targeting everything from individuals to entire cities are growing rapidly.
SXSW was an amazing learning opportunity that we are very grateful to have been able to attend.
