Our first returning guest - Mayokun Mac Alonge is back with Emma and Sheryl to talk about how companies have responded to the resurgence of the Black Lives Matter movement in the wake of the killing of George Floyd (and others) and the global protests.

Mac is founder and CEO at The Equal Group, a data-driven diversity & inclusion consultancy based in the UK.

We discuss several prominent corporate board moves - the resignations of Alexis Ohanian (Reddit), Karen Parkin (Adidas) and the stepping down of Dame Louise Martin from Birmingham's 2022 Commonwealth Games board.

Have companies done enough? What should they be doing and what, in particular, is the role of HR. Listen in for some honest and upfront convo.
