Respect & Minority Success at HP
Date: 1988
Manager Harry Portwood found that HP’s emphasis on respect for the individual created an environment that was especially conducive to minority success: “I’ve been impressed with HP’s focus on people. People can approach upper-level managers comfortably, take risks, make mistakes and still succeed. You have this opportunity at HP no matter who you are or what your background is. HP is the only company in my experience that offers such meaningful opportunities to people from all walks of life.”
