Originally published in GoDaddy’s 2025 Global Stakeholder Impact Report
In my first year as GoDaddy’s Chief People Officer, I was inspired by how our employees bring our purpose to life. Our belief that opportunity should be inclusive for all is more than an aspiration. It shows up in how our teams collaborate, support one another, and serve the customers who trust GoDaddy to help them grow their businesses.
This focus is reflected throughout GoDaddy’s 2025 Global Stakeholder Impact Report. The report highlights progress grounded in transparency, trust, and shared accountability, and it connects the employee experience, including engagement, growth, wellbeing, and belonging, to outcomes that matter to our customers.
Building an Inclusive Foundation
For more than a decade, GoDaddy has publicly shared workforce representation and pay parity outcomes because we believe trust is built through consistent, transparent disclosure. In 2025, we again achieved gender pay parity globally and race and ethnicity pay parity in the United States, reinforcing our focus on fair compensation.
Pay parity reflects the kind of environment we work to build. When people trust that systems are fair, they can focus on innovation and collaboration, build skills, and contribute in ways that advance our mission. That foundation supports strong teams and helps us deliver for customers and stakeholders.
Preparing Our People for the Future of Work
As the workplace evolves, expanding opportunity means preparing our people for new ways of working. In 2025, we focused on building practical AI capabilities through inclusive learning and experimentation. This work supports our broader focus on continuous learning, leadership development, and career growth so employees can build skills alongside our business.
Moving Forward, Together
Our people remain at the center of every decision we make. In the year ahead, our employees will continue to integrate AI into daily tasks, aiming to boost efficiency and shorten cycle times. We will continue investing in AI skill development, wellbeing, and safety because when people feel supported and connected, they are best equipped to help our customers succeed.
I am proud of the progress reflected in this report and grateful to every employee who makes it possible. Guided by our purpose, we will continue advancing this work together.
