What happens when a traumatic incident in your youth shapes your entire worldview? Join Steph Edusei in conversation with James Carss, founder and chief executive of Castle Peak Group, as he recounts his poignant journey from his childhood in the predominantly white North East of England to his experiences in London, Hong Kong, and Canada. James opens up about a pivotal moment of racial violence that fuelled his dedication to equality and justice. Discover how his personal trials have translated into a professional mission to create inclusive spaces and promote social justice.
Sharing his experience of building truly inclusive organisations, James emphasizes the necessity of having diverse executive teams and the importance of starting these efforts at the leadership level. He sheds light on the progress in diversity across regulated sectors like financial services while highlighting ongoing challenges in other industries, including charities. Learn about the pitfalls of tokenism and the importance of genuine, strategic approaches to fostering diversity that reflects the community and customer base. James shares invaluable insights into how organizations can move beyond superficial policies to demonstrate real commitment through actions and leadership.
James discusses the pressures faced by minoritised individuals, particularly black women in senior positions, and how structured interviews can help reduce unconscious bias. We explore the value of diverse boards and the significant benefits they bring to organisational success. This episode serves as a powerful reminder of the ongoing relevance of diversity and inclusion, and the profound impact of personal experiences on one’s professional dedication to these crucial issues.
