Saint-Gobain North America's Carmen Bodden and Rochelle Samuel Named to INvolve Heroes Women Role Model LIsts for Commitment to Championing Women in Business

Saint-Gobain Norteamérica anunció hoy que Carmen Bodden (vicepresidenta y gerente general) y Rochelle Samuel (gerente de Sustentabilidad) de CertainTeed Roofing han sido nombradas para las listas de modelos de mujeres de INvolve Heroes para 2023. Este honor reconoce el compromiso de Carmen y Rochelle con un lugar de trabajo y una comunidad más diversos y equitativos.

The INvolve Heroes Role Model Lists showcase current and future leaders who are breaking down barriers for women within global business. The INvolve Heroes Role Model Lists are open to business leaders working in all countries, highlighting the top 100 executives and future leaders who are leading by example to foster the talents and contributions of women in their industries.

  • Carmen Bodden- Top 100 Women Executives 2023: As the leader of Saint-Gobain’s Roofing Products Group, Carmen has been recognized for her work to foster gender diversity in her business, the company, and manufacturing industry. Her team exemplifies this commitment, where women hold multiple vital roles. Carmen also serves as the Executive Advisor of the company's Women's Network, championing initiatives that empower women. In addition, Carmen takes leadership roles outside her company, contributing to the National Women in Roofing (NWIR) organization and its Philadelphia Chapter and facilitates discussions on the value of women in  roofing at industry events.
  • Rochelle Samuel- Top 100 Future Leaders 2023: As the Sustainability Manager for CertainTeed Roofing, Rochelle Samuel has been recognized for fostering an open culture for employees of all backgrounds both within the company and in the sustainability sector. At Saint-Gobain, she co-founded LEAD (Leading Efforts for Ancestral Diversity) in 2017, fostering an open culture for employees of all backgrounds, and she is one of the leads for the Women's Network Steering Committee, partnering with businesses to attract, develop, and retain talented women across 13 North American hubs. Passionate about women and minorities in engineering and sustainability, Rochelle promotes inclusion in historically underrepresented fields with the Society of Women Engineers (SWE), where she is a mentor and the National Society of Black Engineers (NSBE), where she connects professional development opportunities with local colleges and universities.

“To be recognized amongst so many leaders dedicated to breaking down barriers for women in business, including my colleague Rochelle Samuel, is a great honor and I thank INvolve Heroes Role Model Lists for this great recognition,” said Carmen. “Our commitment to fostering gender diversity at Saint-Gobain will continue as we work to build the best teams in a diverse and inclusive workplace.”

“Thank you to INvolve Heroes List for recognizing me as a Top 100 Future Leader and congratulations to all those recognized, including my mentor Carmen Bodden,” said Rochelle. “I will continue to work tirelessly to advance equitable representation in the workplace and look forward to continued opportunities to drive more women and people of diverse backgrounds to the manufacturing and sustainability sectors.”

Carmen and Rochelle’s recognition from INVolve Heroes Role Model Lists is the latest Saint-Gobain North America and its team have received for its commitment to Make the World a Better Home and comes as the company has recently launched its empowHERed campaign to promote manufacturing as an ideal career for women:
