Aspiring Talent Breaking Barriers

Let’s Break The Barriers
Can talent start at the bottom and work their way to the top as many CEOs did before?
In 2019 you would think so but there was more chance between 1955 and 1975 (OECD Report).
So how can we change this and break through the barriers?
The stats paint a picture that its much much harder today.
- 85% of 18-24 year olds do not believe this can happen today
- Surely it is wrong that there are barriers to talent flourishing
To achieve this, we have work to do…
- 63% of employees lack trust in their leadership (Forbes Magazine)
- Minority of millennials believe businesses behave ethically (Deloittes)
- Majority of Millennials do not believe leaders are committed to helping improve society (Deloittes)
- 46% believe progress depends on their social background
- 33% believe career progress is related to talent
- 49% of lowest socio-economic group receive no training after leaving school
- We need to change this landscape
- Leadership should build trust
All talent should feel it has a fair chance of success.
