Leaders Meet: Diversity

 

Sport has the power to connect people and create change. Here at Leaders, we’re committed to championing diversity and utilising our position at the heart of the sports industry to help catalyse that change.

 

The Leaders Meet: Diversity Series, delivered in partnership with Facebook, provides the platform for executives within sport to come together to drive diversity within the industry, accelerate the pace of change and inspire the next generation of executives, through thought-leadership events and digital forums.

Chain Conversations

The Chain Conversations content series brings together a diverse range of executives from across professional sport to share their personal stories of leadership. With every new conversation, the previous interviewee becomes the interviewer to continue the chain; giving you an insight into a range of independent, personal journeys from across the sports industry.

The series of conversations aim to inspire and energise you, and to showcase why diverse thinking makes for better business in sport and beyond. Access the conversations below to hear more.
