This past week, Anaplanners across our global offices gathered to celebrate Diwali, the five-day festival of lights widely observed by more than a billion people around the world. To all who celebrate, we wish you a joyful Diwali!
In honor of Black History Month in the U.K. and its empowering theme, "Saluting our Sisters," Anaplan's Black Employees of African Descent employee resource group (ERG) hosted a special event in our London office that left us feeling rejuvenated and informed! 💃🏾✨ We teamed up with the incredible LIHA Beauty—a Black women-owned business focused on self-care and skin care—for a hands-on workshop on the magic of shea butter. Our employees whipped up their very own batches of shea butter and learned how to use everyday kitchen ingredients to create DIY skincare. 🌿🧖🏾♀️ A huge shoutout to LIHA Beauty for sharing their wisdom and passion with us. We loved learning about the healing powers of shea butter and are ready to elevate our self-care routines. 💆🏾♂️💆🏾♀️🖤💫 #BlackHistoryMonth #SalutingOurSisters #SelfCare
From Manilla to the UK, Minneapolis to Singapore, leaders of Anaplan's seven Employee Resource Groups (ERGs) gathered in New York for our very first ERG Co-Lead Summit. During this summit, innovative ideas sparked, and future ERG initiatives took shape. The team brainstormed programming, met with key executives, and participated in development training. At Anaplan, we are building a winning culture where diverse experiences, voices and perspectives are celebrated and valued. Our ERGs are at the heart of this. The synergy, collaboration, and learning during the summit left us feeling energized. Hear from our Chief People Officer, Carey Pellock, about the impact of bringing our ERG leads together.
We love the flexibility of virtual working, and we also love connecting in person to collaborate and innovate together. From New York and San Francisco to Singapore, Paris, and Tel Aviv, we love seeing Anaplanners come together to build relationships, tackle challenges, and brainstorm new ideas to deliver even greater value to our global customers.

Hemant Kapadia, Anaplan CFO and executive sponsor for the Anaplan Asiaplan Employee Resource Group, posted on LinkedIn about working alongside co-hosts Anju Rao and Erika Yuzon to promote awareness of Asian culture, create a forum for Asian employees, and create a sense of community. We’ve been talking about the power of Allyship at Anaplan and it was great to see the large number of allies who took the first step and joined our call. Hemant looks forward to breaking down more barriers together and contributing to an environment where everyone can thrive. #team #culture #anaplan
