Diversity in leadership shines a brighter light on business and investment outcomes
Diverse leaders excel and lead across all sectors of the investment industry today. As decision-makers in their organizations, women and racial and ethnic-minority professionals bring their unique viewpoints and experiences to allocating capital, making investment decisions and helping recognize and promote diverse talent that mirrors the communities and companies they invest in.
“The vibrancy of dialogue around diversity, equity and inclusion across organizations is certainly more amplified today than it’s ever been,” said Nancy Sims, president and chief executive officer of the Robert Toigo Foundation, an Oakland, Calif.-based nonprofit that has been “addressing the intersection between talent and opportunity in the industry for over 30 years.”
