Listen "019 - How Do We Tackle Racial Diversity In The Events Industry?"
Episode Synopsis
Do senior level execs really care about Diversity and Inclusion? Or Is it just lip service?
On this week's episode, we are joined by the founders of Event First Steps, Priya Narian, Elena Clowes and Caitlin Kobrak to discuss the results of the global survey on tackling racial diversity in the events industry in collaboration with C&IT.
We talk about how the events of the summer have been a catalyst and driver for the industry to start moving to a more diverse and inclusive workforce and question why it’s taken so long?
We discuss why 75% of agency suppliers and in-house corporate teams feel that there is a lack of diversity in their organisations and why they feel they can’t speak up.
How event professionals can make changes and how they can put pressure on their companies to do the same.
And how can we use our position and our networks to really make some noise and draw attention to the lack of D&I in a tangible way?
