Last week I shared my first interview with people from Verizon to discuss their efforts to support professional women. This week I am pleased to release part two of that interview. Samantha Hammock, SVP, Global Talent, Verizon. We discuss the issue of women leaving the workplace in record numbers, how to stem the exodus, and how to bring them back into the workplace.

Samantha, along with her peer Aimee Novak, also helped create Verizon's Women in Business program that they launched bringing together leading female business leaders in the space in a series of intimate video roundtables. They also launched a very recent effort known as The Women’s CoLab (https://www.verizon.com/about/womens-co-lab). This effort will bring together resources to succeed, both during the pandemic and beyond and in an increasingly digital world. Participants get access to trailblazing leaders, best-in-class development resources, and an array of tools to remain in the workplace and thrive.
