Have you ever wondered why as Britain becomes more diverse so many of our leaders come from the same narrow pool Can it be acceptable in 2023 that there are no ethnic minority chief constables only one CEO in the top 50 NHS Trusts and no permanent secretaries in the civil service
Nazir Afzal knows what its like to break the glass ceiling challenge prejudice and shake up predominantly white institutions Born in Birmingham to first generation Pakistani immigrants he was the first Muslim to be appointed as a Chief Crown Prosecutor and the most senior Muslim lawyer in the Crown Prosecution Service
His insights into the UKs relationship with race and power have driven him to demand answers to an age old question around Britains diversity failings why does ethnic minority talent continue to be sidelined Deploying bristling polemic and presenting an ambitious blueprint to unlock Britains hidden potential this book hears from highprofile ethnic minority leaders to discover the hurdles they had to overcome and what changes are needed to make a difference
Containing interviews with leaders across all sectors Nazir provides the most detailed examination to date of the prejudice holding our leading institutions and industries back In doing so it forcefully confronts stale leadership orthodoxies and argues that power in Britain does not have to look exactly the same as it always has done Its time to welcome the new wave of diverse leadership talent that Britain is crying out for
