Executive Allies
In the midst of
the year we have had, join us as we explore the role of Executives in building
a strong culture of inclusivity through allyship.
As part of this the session, we will first hear Grace Lordan, who will explore the impact on
inclusion that comes by moving to a virtual work force, as described in her
recent report, Virtual Inclusion in the City. In order to understand the
obstacles that stand in the way of virtual inclusion for the City of London’s
workers she went on a virtual listening tour engaging 35 of the City on
London’s most senior leaders and asked the following two questions:
- When thinking of
inclusivity when all team members are working at home, can you identify
one best practice that you will definitely be using to manage your team?
- When
thinking of inclusivity when all team members are working at home, can you
identify the biggest challenge or obstacle you expect to face with respect
to keeping your team engaged in their daily tasks?
We will then hear
from a variety of executives who will discuss how they drive inclusion within
their organisations, as well as how allyship has had an impact on their career
progression.
