Professions and Diversity

Professions and Diversity Article in Media

After I wrote this article, I sent it to various colleagues and friends and got very positive feedback. Professions have always been a magnet for minorities, but in the UK professional bodies would like to stay monocultural for some peculiar reason. A lawyer friend said the situation is much worse in the legal profession, where colour is seen as a barrier to progress. Much work needs to be done by professional bodies to change and truly embrace diversity.
