2021 Winner
This was another very challenging category, with some strong contenders.
Our winner was an initiative which, the judges felt, demonstrated the organisation was on a journey in its response to D&I. The Institute of Hospitality is operating in a sector that has been particularly impacted by the pandemic, and they recognised the opportunity that represented to review and reset the sector’s approach to people, to future proof and promote diversity. It was a holistic approach to D&I, and one that underscored the link with youth employment, mentoring and shaping the leaders of the future.
