Rosanna Durruthy Head of Global Diversity, Inclusion & Belonging | Talent Alchemist | Investor | Advisor | Empowering Talent at Massive Scale New York, New York Connect Connect with Rosanna Durruthy LinkedIn Stanford University Graduate School of Business See contact info 500+ connections I think differently and that enables me to be a strategist and business influencer. Collaborating with high performance teams, we drive talent engagement, business growth, and customer value. Most of all, I am committed to a world that works and all talent thrives. As CEO of AEQUUS Group, I led an organizational consulting practice designed to empower adaptive emerging leaders. Through executive coaching and personal network analysis, I coached women and people of color to achieve new thresholds of leadership and successful career progression within “Fortune 150” companies. Operating with a different philosophy on talent and leadership, my practices have been cited in several publications, including the books Chasing Stars: The Myth of Talent and the Portability of Performance by Boris Groysberg, Princeton University Press (2010), and Latinos in College (2010) and Poder de Mujer (2012), along with the English translated Find Your Inner Red Shoes (2012) by Mariela Dabbah.

The high-level report follows below and the complete report and details on our strategy can be found here. ****** As LinkedIn and many of our peers continue to report out on our diversity, inclusion and belonging efforts, we must confront a clear and uncomfortable truth: We aren’t progressing quickly enough. As an industry that prides itself on solving complex problems and innovating rapidly, we believe we can and should be able to close gaps in representation faster than we’re seeing now, but it’s going to take determination, commitment and the willingness to apply the same innovative skills we readily apply in the course of executing our business strategies. At LinkedIn, that’s a commitment we are willing to make, and we aim to do so in partnership with our employees, members, customers and tech company peers. The same spirit of collaboration that has been the hallmark of innovation in tech is needed now, as no single company can create sustainable success without the support and commitment of an ecosystem to provide a community of belonging for all employees. Our 2018 Workforce Report shows sustained progress in some areas, particularly in gender representation. Women now represent 39.1% of our company’s leadership. That’s an increase of 12% in the last two years, and 49% in the last four. We’ve also seen gender diversity improve across technical roles globally. This is the result not of a single solution, but of sustained commitment and focus which we'll continue. But in other areas, including efforts to increase representation of Black and Latino talent in the U.S., we have not had the same kind of increases. While we’re seeing good strides in certain areas, including early success from new hiring initiatives we’ve put in place, our representation numbers have increased only modestly. It’s with this context, and a deep conviction in its importance to achieving our company vision and business objectives, that we’ve made diversity, inclusion and belonging our number No. 1 priority when it comes to the talent at LinkedIn. With a platform reaching over 590M members, and a vision to create economic opportunity for every member of the global workforce, we’re energized by the opportunity to transform our company and our industry.
