A strong corporate culture that invests in diversity and inclusion is one of the greatest competitive advantages a company can have. The lack of diversity in leadership is a missed opportunity for businesses, to gain benefits from inclusivity, a company’s commitment to diversity must be modeled by its leaders, in the C-suite and at all levels of leadership.
Does your company have diversity in its leadership? If not, you could be missing out on a host of business benefits, like more innovation, higher revenues and stronger talent acquisition opportunities.

The European Union Chamber of Commerce in China and the leaders who share their stories are all proud of contributing to creating more inclusive workplaces.
