The Co-CEO of Belu water and social entrepreneur on diversity in business, and what covid meant for the hospitality industry.
Over a year after the murder of George Floyd catapulted the discussion about race and diversity into the boardroom, Natalie Campbell, the chief executive of British bottled water maker Belu, says “I don’t think [businesses] get it when it comes to race”.
In this video interview, the New Statesman's Emma Haslett speaks to Campbell, who has worked with brands including Marks & Spencer and Virgin Media to improve their sustainability and was an adviser to the Royal Foundation, says businesses are guilty of making promises they don’t deliver on. Since Floyd, “everyone wants to talk about race,” she says – but diversity in boardrooms has not improved.
