Financial Times Live: Women at the Top Europe (Partner Event)

WOMEN AT THE TOP EUROPE: Building an Inclusive Business
12 October 2022
In-Person & Digital | Kimpton Fitzroy, London | #FTWomen

The last few years have been a tough environment for businesses. Post pandemic recovery is in full swing but rising inflation threatens to disrupt growth once again. This means a squeeze on real incomes and more pressure on businesses to remain competitive. As profits decrease, how will boardrooms across Europe approach their diversity and inclusion (D&I) strategies, long seen as a nice to have and not imperative to operational outcomes?

D&I needs to be positioned as a market opportunity and a core business strategy. Studies have shown that a truly diverse workforce improves productivity, performance, and creativity.

How do you build a culture to increase the percentage of women throughout the business – not just at the top? What does the future of leadership look like? How can companies retain diverse talent and show loyalty? As we see a shift in net wealth towards women, does this impact businesses making decisions at board level? How can purposeful action from leaders drive real change?

Allyson Zimmermann, Executive Director, EMEA, Catalyst will be speaking on ‘Leadership in a New Era’.
