Join the Insurance Insider on Thursday, 23 July at 3pm (BST) for the second part of the Insider Progress Black Lives Matter series which will look into self-identification, both for the individual and the company to see where they are on their journey to fight black under representation and where they want to get to.

You will hear practical examples of C-Suite executives and their companies who have made a difference, explaining the steps they took to get there.

Up for discussion:

• How can companies start to identify how well they currently support and encourage the development of black professionals? Are there any specific needs for black employees which companies could better address?
• The importance of data collection and creating a safe space for employees to self-identify their race
• How can we collectively – from junior employee to C-suite – create an environment in which black professionals can thrive?
• How can companies effectively monitor their progress on racial equality?
• What structures and frameworks could be put in place to make sure black voices are heard?
• What measures can be taken to encourage more black talent into the industry?
