ITV Diversity Acceleration Plan
DIVERSITY ACCELERATION PLAN REPORT 2021 WELCOME CAROLYN MCCALL, CEO ITV Welcome to our report. A year ago, we committed to increasing investment, including appointing a new Diversity & Inclusion team, in order to accelerate the speed of change and increase representation on-screen, in our production teams and within our own workforce. Attracting the best talent from a wide range of backgrounds, creating an inclusive culture where all colleagues can flourish, and making programmes that appeal to wide and diverse audiences are all hugely important priorities to our business. I feel incredibly proud to work for ITV and this has been an extraordinary year. I would like to acknowledge the passion and commitment ITV colleagues have displayed to drive this agenda forward and particularly the hard work of and the important role that our colleague Network Groups have played. Lockdown made things harder to deliver on many fronts including some elements of this plan and there are further steps to reach all our targets. There is no doubting our commitment – we are also committed to measuring our progress and reporting publicly each year because we know that we will rightly be judged by actions rather than words. 2 INTRODUCTION ADE RAWCLIFFE, GROUP DIRECTOR DIVERSITY AND INCLUSION, ITV As a senior leader at ITV I know how essential it is for us to use our position in society to shape Britain’s culture whilst reflecting who we are; it’s a position of privilege and responsibility. ITV has a duty to remain relevant, successful and profitable. As custodians of an organisation which millions of British people have a close relationship and affinity with, we understand the importance of ensuring that ITV consistently lives up to their expectations. -
