What does Echoes of Equality mean? We want it to symbolize the interconnectedness of the community and the collective voice amplifying the message that bullying and harassment have no place at LBS. If we see this happening, we will speak up against it and stop it!
Join us for a transformative Fireside Chat as the opening session for Speak Out Week. This chat, featuring Stuart Love, delves into leadership's role in fostering inclusive communities, informed by Stuart's experiences in South Africa and his commitment to Equity, Diversity, and Inclusion (EDI).
Get a chance to learn about Westminster City Council's initiatives under Stuart's leadership, including the significant strides made in reducing pay gaps and increasing diversity and representation, illustrating the council's comprehensive approach to creating safer, more inclusive environments.
Stuart's insights will extend to discussing how similar strategies can be applied within academic settings like LBS to enhance financial inclusivity and combat bullying and harassment, followed by an interactive Q&A and a light lunch.

Stuart has been Chief Executive at Westminster City Council since 2018. His previous role was Executive Director for City Management and Communities. He is the co-chair of the Chief Executive’s London Committee’s Tackling Racial Inequality Group London and a Business In The Community mentor. Under his leadership, the following initiatives have been launched in Westminster City Council:
- Diverse shortlisted candidates
- Inclusive recruitment
- Reverse mentoring
- The Black on Board governance training programme designed to mentor junior council officers
Stuart has ensured that the council publishes all of its pay gaps, not just the gender pay gap and has used this to address the gender and ethnicity pay gaps that exist in the organisation. During Stuart’s time as Chief Executive, the demographics of the council have changed significantly to represent the communities it serves and representation at senior levels in the organisation has improved significantly.
Stuart’s focus as Chief Executive is on people and culture, with equity, diversity and inclusion being at the core.
