In this installment of our 30% Club podcast our global campaign manager Laura Whitcombe and vice chair Pavita Cooper are joined by Penny James and Nimesh Patel, the co-chairs of the Government-backed FTSE Women Leaders review to discuss how to get more women into board and executive roles. Direct Line boss Penny is one of only 10 female CEOS in the FTSE 100 and Nimesh is CFO of Spirax-Sarco Engineering – a company that’s hard to work hard to attracht women to its executive team.
Both know what it’s like to be in the minority and making sure all talent has the ability to thrive is something they are both passionate about and are committed to across their organisations. In this interview, they share advice for companies wanting to do the best for their people to make their business better. From getting a firm grip on data to flexible working and linking executive pay to inclusion targets, we hope that by listening to this podcast, you’ll be inspired to make your organisation more inclusive for all talent.
