Creating a pool of diverse candidates
Diverse candidates making a difference and improving business performance.
Tbay is Harvey Nash’s resource to increase its pool of diverse candidates. It is recognised that women, members of black and minority ethnic communities, and disabled people are underrepresented on Boards and in senior positions. Tbay is where you, as a member of one of these groups, should register to help us promote diversity.
Tbay is not about positive discrimination. We see Tbay as a way for us as a professional executive search firm, and as part of a larger business community, to avoid negative discrimination. Tbay is not a separate listing. It will be part of the main Harvey Nash database
Registering with Tbay will purely ensure that you are advised when there are opportunities of interest for you or members of your networks. Selection is purely on merit and the full application process will have to be followed with demonstrable evidence of a fit to the particular criteria being sought.
Becoming part of the Tbay Network will ensure you are kept up to date with Harvey Nash appointment opportunities and as Tbay develops, we aim to offer our members seminars, networking opportunities and even exposure to mentoring and shadowing opportunities.
Businesses with a diverse workforce are more strongly placed to attract and retain quality staff. Well-led diverse teams can outperform homogenous teams by as much as 15%*. (Dr Taylor Cox (1995) ‘The Business Case for Managing Diversity’ Watson, Warren, Jumar, Kamakesh and Larry). Diversity Works for London report
The Women and Work Commission has estimated that increasing women’s participation in the labour market, and in higher paid occupations and roles, could be worth between £15bn and £23bn a year to the UK economy. Cranfield School of Management web site.
McKinsey’s recently launched report confirms the findings of the already impressive body of research which shows that companies with women in top management outperform those without. Women Matter - the full report.
Businesses with good race diversity strategies see their profits increase, a report by campaign group Race for Opportunity (RFO) suggests. RFO chairman Allan Leighton said the results showed diversity reaped rewards for "the bottom line". "Developing business practice that addresses race is a no-brainer. The ethnic minority population in the UK has an annual disposable income spending power of £32bn," said Mr Leighton, who is also the chairman of Royal Mail.
Society@work states that successfully managed, diversity can be a strategic tool to build a stronger, more flexible organisation. Diversity@Work web site.
