ABOUT THIS EPISODE
Across society, businesses and other organisations have woken up to the importance of diversity in the workforce and the improvements it can bring to decision making. In local government it is even more important that councils reflect the communities they serve, amongst both officers and members, yet too often, especially at senior levels, this is not the case. In the next edition of The Local Authority podcast LGC, along with our partners TPX Impact, are seeking to explore what can be done to change this, as well as how local government can do more to build cohesive fairer communities.
Joining Sarah this month is Shazia Hussain, deputy chief executive at Waltham Forest LBC; Cllr Bev Craig, leader of Manchester City Council and Laura Harris, consultancy and change director at TPXimpact.
