A Matter of Law Podcast Series

02 March 2023

We’ve all been hearing a lot about the importance of Diversity, Equity and Inclusion (DEI) within an organisation. Numerous studies have found that DEI drives better business results, greater innovation, and most importantly, collaborative successful teams that thrive and are more resilient.

It makes sense... And it sounds simple - but is it? In this episode, we will explore how companies can really embed DEI into the very fabric of their business, and ensure everyone feels valued within the organisation. As you’ll find out, it’s not always easy.

Reuben Vandercruyssen, senior associate at Hogan Lovells spoke to fellow Labor and Employment lawyers Anvita Sharma, senior associate in our London office and Tao Leung, partner in our L.A. office, as well as Mary FitzPatrick, Global Head of Diversity & Inclusion at Rolls-Royce, on the challenges, and the opportunities, when everyone gets behind a strong DEI strategy.

Authored by Anvita Sharma, Tao Leung, and Reuben Vandercruyssen.
