Description:
Join us for a transformative Fireside Chat as the opening session for Speak Out Week. This chat, featuring Stuart Love, delves into leadership's role in fostering inclusive communities, informed by Stuart's experiences in South Africa and his commitment to Equity, Diversity, and Inclusion (EDI).
Get a chance to learn about Westminster City Council's initiatives under Stuart's leadership, including the significant strides made in reducing pay gaps and increasing diversity and representation, illustrating the council's comprehensive approach to creating safer, more inclusive environments.
Stuart's insights will extend to discussing how similar strategies can be applied within academic settings like LBS to enhance financial inclusivity and combat bullying and harassment, followed by an interactive Q&A and a light lunch.
Why is Westminster City Council an attractive firm to work with?
Stuart and his team have made significant progress in diversity, doubling Global Majority (BAME) staff to 1017 and enhancing their leadership roles from 5% to 26%. Gender diversity also improved, with women now 58% of the workforce and 45% in senior roles, leading to equitable salaries and narrowing the gender pay gap. Such engagements offer a unique insight into the council's dedication to fostering an inclusive work environment, positioning it as an ideal employer for those who value diversity and inclusion in their professional landscape.
