This is a defining moment for leadership diversity. Most organisations are getting it wrong.
The L Factor partners with scale-ups and corporates to build diverse senior leadership pipelines that drive commercial performance, strengthen culture, and create lasting competitive advantage.
When the world is stepping back from diversity, the smartest organisations are stepping forward.
Doing the right thing has never been harder. There is an opportunity here to be different by showing your people that you care. Organisations with diverse leadership teams consistently outperform their peers: making faster decisions, innovating more effectively, and delivering stronger financial results.
Research shows companies in the top quartile for ethnic and gender diversity are significantly more likely to outperform on profitability.
