Influence those with power to drive change.
Enable future women leaders.
The success of the 30% Club demonstrates what can be achieved and is now needed for all areas of diversity, and in particular, ethnicity. All research shows that organizations with ethnically diverse leadership teams outperform their competitors by 35%, so the business case is clear.
No time to delay #30%club #diversity
