When agency leaders talk to the press and run internal diversity programs, do they even realize theyโ€™re the ones that have driven every decision that led us to this point?

When they lead these all agency zoom calls, do they even take a look at the folks in the grid looking back at them? Itโ€™s clear they have not walked the walk in their hiring practices.

I think itโ€™s time the people in the lower echelons drive the change. We have to push harder. We have to hold our agencies accountable.

Why bother advocating for change if we're not open to the possibility of it happening? This movement has made me take a look at my own biases and consider things I hadn't before and it's leading to a concious behavioural shift. Who's to say it can't happen to another individual just because of their seat at the head of the table? I don't believe that their seat makes them inherently bad people. In short, I hope you're wrong. You may not be, but I hope you are.

They are selling the image of the agency to the public. Thatโ€™s why I cringe whenever I see their โ€œaltruisticโ€ posts on LinkedIn patting themselves on the back.
