‘All of Us’ was a movement

The All of Us pledge campaign started as a global employee initiative inviting individuals and teams to pledge to transform Howden into the ultimate workplace. Each pledge strived to improve representation, create development opportunities, and cultivate a sense of belonging that everyone could take pride in. Despite the campaign ending in October 2024, the pledges made continue to live on.

 

Global Pledges

Howden pledges around the world

The best pledges were focused and intentional in their actions. They came from the heart and they used S.M.A.R.T. goal setting principles.

One pledge, infinite possibilities

Each pledge was a promise to take a specific action that helped create a workplace we, and future generations, can be proud of. Each pledge, big or small, individual or as part of a team, made a difference.
