Great to see the coverage from Financial News this morning on the latest data from Reboot’s upcoming third annual Race to Equality: UK Financial Services report, tracking corporate progress on DEI in the financial services sector. As shown in Paul Clarke's Financial News article today, the picture this year is mixed. Our Race to Equality Index is showing a decline in overall DEI scores from 67 to 65 (out of an optimal 100) in 2023. This decline has largely been driven by lower levels of perceived commitment to tackling discrimination from senior leadership, and suggests that limited progress has been made over the past three years in improving DEI. The full piece by Financial News can be found below, and we look forward to sharing the full report later this month, ahead of the FCA DE&I consultation deadline. https://lnkd.in/g7zcZmFr #Diversity #Inclusion #Equity #Reboot #FinancialServices #RebootTheNarrative #RaceToEquality

In 2020, Corra Foundation made a commitment to becoming an anti-racist organisation. Corra has publicly shared why racial equity is important to the organisation and what it plans to do to embed racial equity across its work. More recently, Corra published a review of its historical funding, which examined the links to historical Atlantic slavery, the British Empire and colonialism of the banking sector and institutions from which Corra emerged. The key finding of the review is that connections with Atlantic slavery directly supported the evolution of international banking enterprises and shaped the late twentieth century commercial infrastructure, from which Corra later evolved. Here's what Corra shared about this finding: “The Trustee and staff team acknowledge that Corra has a connection to historical Atlantic slavery. While this connection is not direct and is rather via the banking sector from which Corra emerged, there is no doubt that without the profits generated by the Atlantic slavery economy, the banking institutions to which Corra was connected would not have existed in their modern form and scale. The work Corra has been doing on racial equity in recent years has emerged from our growing understanding of the impact of historical Atlantic slavery on Black, Asian and Minority Ethnic communities. We acknowledge the deep injustices of slavery as well as how it has contributed to structural and systemic racism today. We recognise the harm caused to people who were enslaved and the intergenerational trauma that is experienced by people we work alongside today. The experiences and wellbeing of Black, Asian and Minority Ethnic communities must be at the centre of how Corra reflects on this research and in actions we take as a result.” In response, Corra has also shared a range of actions it intends to take including: - ensuring that the voices of those who have been impacted by the legacy of Atlantic slavery, British Empire and colonialism are centred and that their lived expertise shapes its work. Corra will also seek their views on what action funders should take using a restorative justice frame and embed lived experience and participatory approaches throughout its grant making. - ringfencing at least a third of its £1m a year Henry Duncan Grants for Black, Asian and Minority Ethnic led organisations up to 2025. - Helping create the conditions for greater investment in racial justice in Scotland. This will include building on the learning from funds focused on racial equity and anti-racism that we have delivered to date. For more on Corra’s racial equity commitments: https://lnkd.in/eiuFR97n Note: Modern Grantmaking has not provided services to Corra. We are highlighting Corra as an example of a funder in the UK that is putting its words and statements relating to racial equity into action by changing how it operates and how it funds. #grantmaking #grants #grantsmanagement #racialequity #racialjustice #philanthropy

Non-Profit Leader in Adult Education & Workforce Development | Collaborative Partnership | Dedicated Advocate for Inclusive Communities [✓Affirmation Story - Writer, Author & Facilitator] |
Headline: Why DEI Initiatives Fail: Uncovering the Challenges and Seeking Solutions In recent times, we've seen significant efforts directed towards enhancing Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion (DEI) in workplaces. However, not all initiatives reach their intended goals, and at times, they even face setbacks. A critical analysis reveals that one of the stumbling blocks can be the lack of genuine commitment from all levels of an organization, particularly from the top. When DEI efforts are perceived as mere formalities rather than integral business practices, they struggle to gain traction. This can often stem from a disconnect between the initiative's goals and the understanding or commitment of predominantly white leadership teams. Without authentic leadership buy-in and a clear understanding of the nuances of DEI, efforts can inadvertently be undermined. True progress in DEI requires more than just setting up a program. It requires a cultural shift, ongoing education, and the involvement of every employee. It's about creating an environment where diverse individuals feel genuinely valued and equally involved. I am looking forward to Dr. Frasier video on why whites killed DEI. What on Youtube tomorrow at 5:00pm. ( https://lnkd.in/gsbUNtP3). This is going to be interesting to hear his perspective and I love the way he presents topics. I'll have my popcorn and coke ready! Question: What strategies have you found effective in fostering a real commitment to DEI in your organization? #DEIChallenge #Yesworkforce
