The new reputation equity for diverse CEOs

People from diverse backgrounds struggle to land C-Suite jobs and their tenures are often shorter. One key but often overlooked reason for this is the failure to capitalize on reputation management and communication as an integral part of increasing diversity at the highest levels. We Need New Leaders helps aspiring leaders from diverse backgrounds to land and keep the top jobs.

Combining her MSc research with over 20 years’ professional experience, including several years leading a global executive communications team, Charlotte Otter shows how aspiring leaders can master reputation management as a bridge to success.

Beating the odds might seem hard, but the world needs a new and better cohort of leaders. Learn what you need to do to be seen and heard as the leader you are.
