Today, many corporate diversity and inclusion initiatives struggle to include men. While many best-practice organizations are now focused on engaging male allies, in many other organizations the perception of diversity initiatives primarily addresses inequalities faced by women, and other marginalized groups have unintentionally excluded men.
This cast features an exclusive interview with David Hawkins, Chairman and Managing Director for BASF, Australia and New Zealand. David is an active “Male Champions of Change” member and D&I activist who has been developing & executing the D&I strategy for BASF.
Tune in to hear what he has to say on the “multi-generational divide”, measuring a company’s current position on Diversity and Inclusion and the impact if they don’t. He will share his strategy on how engaging men to step beside women to take action to advance gender equality is in his words “non-negotiable”.
