Case Study

Coventry City Council – Bespoke Brilliant Leaders programme

Coventry City Council commissioned us to support their talent from Black, Asian and minority ethnic backgrounds.

 
They found that talent from Black, Asian and minority ethnic backgrounds represented just 19% of their headcount and considerably less at senior leadership level.
 
We worked with a group of 15 talented staff from Black, Asian and minority ethnic backgrounds following a rigorous application process.
 
 
Results
  • 100% now feel that they can be themselves at work (compared to 21% at the start of the programme)
  • 100% can now talk to their line manager about Race and ethnicity (compared to 57% at the start of the programme)
  • 100% would recommend the programme to a colleague
  • 30% were promoted during the programme duration and others have been promoted since
