3. “[40%] is an easy target, and we’re pushing on an open door in many regards”
Who said it? Graham Charlton, CEO of LSE-listed reseller giant Softcat
What was he referring to?
Talking to IT Channel Oxygen on a first-half results call in March, Charlton claimed Softcat’s progress on gender diversity has become “self fulfilling”.
The LSE-listed outfit revealed it had met its goal of 35% female workforce mix ahead of target, and has now hoisted that target to 40% by 2030.
“We were coming from 30%, and we’re trying to get to 40% – so if we do a good job on equality those numbers will just happen to us,” Charlton said.
