Not enough diverse people reaching and staying in executive roles. Not enough leaders bringing different talents and perspectives. Not enough work on engaging all genders to pave a sustainable way forward. This is the status quo for many companies despite decades of evidence showing that greater diversity in leadership drives business performance, innovation and sustainability. Companies cannot afford for this to be enough. Complex market and technological developments are sharpening the focus on what top talent looks like. ESG regulation is raising the ethical bar and marking companies, whether they follow or not. Employees - especially younger generations - are expecting more from workplaces and won’t stick around for change. But the horizon is uncertain and disruptive, even for companies committed to doing better. Budgetary cuts, DEI headwinds and geopolitical uncertainties all mean stark ROI choices. It’s time to rethink the approach to diversity. Driving greater diversity today requires prioritising interventions that truly shift the needle rather than tick boxes. It calls for engaging a broader spectrum of leaders and stakeholders and working with the hidden drivers of human behaviour to create inclusive environments. It’s time for diverse leadership from within. As a Leadership & Diversity Advisor, Helen Tubb brings a special combination of senior executive experience and world-class organisational psychology to increase diversity in senior roles, transform leadership culture and enhance sustainability.
