Racial and ethnic minority representation in leadership roles is a priority for regulators, investors, consumers and employees. We need to pick up the pace of progress and turn intent into action and change.
Launched in October 2020 by the CBI and 13 founding businesses to support the Parker-Tyler Review, we now have a large body of signatories who work together as a peer group. All signatories are committed to change and making progress in transparency, inclusion, action and accountability.
Our founders run the campaign and support our signatories.
Our campaign provides a platform to show commitment to the Parker-Tyler review and a peer group for business leaders to work together to understand the actions needed to increase representation in the boardroom.
Action on board representation alone won’t deliver the change we want to see; we must also increase racial ethnic minority representation at leadership and talent pipeline levels.
Transparency sends a message that you’re serious about progressing racial and ethnic minority representation. Reporting on your ethnicity pay gap encourages greater action and accountability on the inclusion of racial and ethnic minority talent throughout the talent pipeline, including in senior roles.
Your culture is more than your workforce. We encourage signatories to put processes in place that enable them to reflect the communities they serve and attract, retain and promote racial and ethnic minority talent.
Our ambassadors are high profile business leaders who use their platform to help raise our campaign profile and support signatory progress.
Our signatories’ learning and progress is supported by our campaign partners.
