Synechron announced today that The Globee® Awards, organizers of the world’s premier business awards programs and business ranking lists, has named May Yang, Synechron’s Global Head of Operations, as a Gold Level Female Executive of the Year winner in the 14th Annual 2021 Women World Awards®.

Women World Awards recognizes women in business and professions from all over the world. The coveted annual Women World Awards program encompasses the world’s best in leadership, innovation, organizational performance, new products and services, and milestones from every major industry in the world. Organizations from all over the world are eligible to submit nominations including public and private, for-profit and non-profit, largest to smallest and new start-ups.

Synechron’s May Yang was recognized at the Gold Level in the Female Executive of the Year category. This award recognizes outstanding women in business and professions from across the globe, encompassing the best leaders across every major industry. May’s Synechron career progression, along with her commitment, determination, and dedication to ensuring the development and success of employees, was recognized, as was her unfaltering mission and 2020 launch of Synechron’s ‘Same Difference’ program. The ‘Same Difference’ program, which just marked its first-year anniversary, encompasses an array of eight (and growing) Diversity, Equity and Inclusion (DEI) initiatives across the global organization. Each Synechron regional location has its own set of programs within the global DEI initiative, and all programs are managed, supported and driven by individuals from the grass roots level up through top level management.

Synechron’s ‘Same Difference’ program brings together multiple working groups of employees from all Synechron offices to collaboratively engage with one another and share different perspectives, while fostering an inclusive culture and celebrating individuals’ unique attributes. The program’s suite includes the ‘Better ME’ female mentoring partnership program, the ‘Take the Leap’ series of regular webinars featuring successful external leaders sharing insights on key topics, and the ‘We have your Back’ program which encourages mid-senior level women in IT to return to the workforce after a career hiatus. May is also instrumental in spearheading partnerships with external DEI organizations, including the Professional Diversity Network (PDN), myGwork, India Diversity Forum, Gender Networks U.K. and Campus Pride, all of which serve to strengthen diversity hiring practices.

This significant recognition marks Synechron’s first global award for its growing DEI initiatives platform.

“It is truly an honor to be named a Female Executive of the Year winner by Women World Awards for this esteemed industry and peer recognition program,” said Synechron’s May Yang. “This recognition validates our position as a company determined to celebrate the individualized attributes of many great and skilled people who are starting, building and reigniting their individual career paths. We are thrilled to advance our own efforts toward recognizing all individuals, no matter their culture, background, gender identification, personal life preferences and lifestyles. We are proud to pioneer and demonstrate to the world how we can all advance business initiatives and drive real benefits from building an inclusionary culture, no matter the industry.”
