On this week’s episode of Confluence, we tackle the critical issue of diversity in company leadership. Host Rana Sarkar speaks with two experts on the topic: Sukhinder Singh Cassidy, Founder and Chair of theBoardlist, and Jennifer Holmstrom, Head of Platform at GGV Capital. Both women have long histories of advocating for both inclusive talent acquisition and hiring practices, as well as diverse boards. In this episode, learn more about why making sure that talent—at the top and bottom—is equitable and representative, and the role that both companies and government policy play in keeping our business and innovation ecosystems fair and representative. What tools do we need to ensure diversity in the boardroom? How can we work together to nurture diverse talent pools with equal opportunities? And why is this good for business?
