Minority Entrepeneur Development
Global Supplier Diversity
Through a wide range of programs, activities and investments, we strive to create and maintain
a diverse, representative workforce, guided by the following objectives:
Our global reach is evident in more than just our physical locations. Worldwide, ExxonMobil’s
workforce reflects the local communities in which we operate, giving us a diverse and multi-facet-
ed employee base of unique individuals -- each with ideas and perspectives born of their distinct
backgrounds.
That diversity and inclusion of thought, skill, knowledge and culture makes us more competitive,
more resilient and better able to navigate the complex and constantly changing global energy
business. Diversity strengthens us by promoting unique viewpoints and challenging each of us,
every day, to think beyond our traditional frames of reference.
To ensure that we continually leverage the strengths of this diverse workforce, we foster a work
environment that treats all employees with respect, values unique perspectives, encourages indi-
vidual growth and achievement, and rewards people based on their performance. Wherever we
do business, our objective is to seek out and hire talented, dedicated employees from all walks
of life and give them the opportunity to learn, grow and succeed.
As you review the following pages, you will see that our diversity and inclusion efforts are com-
prehensive. They range from recruiting and career development to educational partnerships and
supplier diversity initiatives designed to improve the quality of life where we live and work.
Our record is one of which employees and shareholders can be proud, and we pledge to con-
tinue our work to ensure that ExxonMobil remains a global company in every sense of the word.

ExxonMobil is an exciting and dynamic place to work. We hire exceptional
people and encourage them to think independently, take initiative and be
innovative.
We’re about people -- all kinds of people -- and the power of inclusiveness.
We cover the globe in search of talented men and women from diverse back-
grounds in order to build a workforce that is as diverse as our customer base.
Universities are our primary source for potential management, professional and
technical employees. ExxonMobil has long-term relationships with hundreds of
outstanding colleges and universities throughout the world.
From a high school intern to a strong contributor, Dr. Ken Lee has
truly grown at ExxonMobil. While completing his undergraduate
degree, Ken was also an intern and recipient of an ExxonMobil
scholarship. He went on to complete a doctoral program in
engineering at The University of Texas at Austin.
