Elle Legrand | Legrand Ghana

More diversity and equal opportunities for all

The elle network is an Employee Ressource Group, created in 2013, which promotes gender diversity within Legrand group and with all its stakeholders. This think tank, genuine laboratory of new ideas and actions, proposes new ways to make our Group more diverse, new ways to break the glass ceiling, new ways to make the building industry and beyond, more inclusive for women.
