Since 2019, the GLF Board has prioritised Diversity, Inclusion, and Belonging (DIB) and has demonstrated thought leadership on the topic through its five annual reports and various ongoing projects led by its working group.
Additionally, the group has also focused on key industry topics such as talent development, upskilling, and reskilling.
In 2020, the ITW Global Leaders’ Forum released a thought leadership report entitled “Driving Gender Diversity and Inclusion in the Telecoms Industry”. Thought to be the first, industry-specific report, the aim of the GLF in producing this piece of thought leadership was to drive awareness of gender diversity within the telecoms industry.
Outlined in this piece were steps that not only the GLF member organisations but also others in this industry can take going forward to ensure gender diversity and inclusion.
The DIB Working Group
The group comprises many industry experts and advocates of DIB in the telecommunications space. It has been highly successful in raising awareness and driving action on key topics such as race, gender, physical disabilities, neurodiversity, among many others.
The group meets regularly, striving to create impact and drive action among key players in the industry. This group is composed of GLF Board and Community members alike.
