UKTN | The Podcast

DEI is under attack. US President Donald Trump has begun a crusade to strip diversity policies from government institutions, while senior tech leaders like Meta’s Mark Zuckerberg have called for workplaces to become ‘more masculine’ despite the fact that the social media giant’s workforce is already male-dominated. 

Is now really the time to tear up the DEI rulebook, or are there good reasons to embrace the positive attitude to diversity that many large corporations have taken over the past decade? 

Viv Paxinos is CEO of AllBright, where she leads a global collective of 500,000 ambitious women committed to creating a more equitable world for all. She believes in maintaining a people-first culture through nurturing and mentoring talent to create a best-in-class working environment.
