Leaders in EDI is a new monthly series covering news, views, comments and debates happening across the\u00a0diversity\u00a0space. It also shines a spotlight on the progress being made and the challenges being faced in EDI across sport.<\/p>\n

For our inaugural episode, we explored the topic of\u202f\u2018intentional inclusion\u2019, with a man\u202fwhose\u202frole is about those very two words. Former professional footballer and manager,\u202fIffy\u202fOnuora, became the Premier League\u2019s first Head of Equality, Diversity and Inclusion last year. The role was created to manage EDI matters at the league, and to encourage and support best practice at the 20 Premier League clubs.<\/p>\n

The conversation (beginning at 05:45) explored how Onuora is implementing purposeful action-based plans that are focused on advancing positive change at one of the world\u2019s largest sports leagues.<\/p>\n

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