Diversity in Leadership: A Business Necessity, Not a PR Move

Writer's picture: Laurence PaquetteLaurence Paquette

🔥 Diversity in leadership isn’t a "nice to have"—it’s a business necessity. If your executive team looks like a country club roster from the 1950s, you’re not just behind the times—you’re actively sabotaging your own success.


Here’s the truth: Companies love to talk about innovation, but they keep hiring the same recycled perspectives. You can’t expect fresh ideas from a room full of people with identical backgrounds, networks, and experiences.


Diverse leadership isn’t about optics. It’s about better decision-making, stronger teams, and higher profits. The data backs it up—yet somehow, we’re still stuck explaining why the same old leadership playbook isn’t working.


If your org isn’t prioritizing real diversity at the top, it’s not just a bad look—it’s bad business. Period. 🚀


What’s the weakest excuse you’ve heard for the lack of diversity in leadership? 👀👇
