Company’s Professional Women’s Network (PWN) also Honored with 2016
International Innovation Award from the Profiles in Diversity Journal

BOSTON–(BUSINESS WIRE)–#stt–State Street Corporation (NYSE: STT) announced today that it has
received the 2016 ERG & Council Honors Award™ from the Association
of ERGs & Councils, in recognition of its Flexible Work Employee
Network (FWEN) and Professional Women’s Network (PWN).

The award is the only annual national award that recognizes and honors
the outstanding contributions and achievements of Employee Resource
Groups (ERGs), Business Resource Groups (BRGs) and Diversity Councils.
This is the second consecutive year State Street’s FWEN has been
recognized as a top employee resource group by the association.

“This year, we had a 20 percent increase in applications representing
1,279 ERGs, BRGs, Diversity Councils and their chapters. This is by far
the most competitive and exciting field to date,” said Fernando Serpa,
executive director of the Association of ERGs & Councils.

State Street’s flex program.

International Innovation Award winners by the Profiles in Diversity
Journal for its Professional Women’s Network. The award is given to
companies demonstrating an alignment of diversity and inclusion with
business goals in the workplace and marketplace. State Street and other
winners will be profiled in the December 2016 edition of the journal.

The State Street’s PWN has 12 chapters, spanning 26 of offices globally,
and focuses on networking, building one’s personal brand, and developing
public speaking and other professional skills. The group is the largest
employee network at State Street with more than 4,000 members.

our employee networks are essential in making sure we are provide a
supportive working environment for the more than 30,000 employees that
make up our workforce,” said Julianne Haskell, managing director of
Global Inclusion at State Street. “We are especially proud to be
