There is a lack of black men in senior positions. We need to tackle the discrimination that is holding so many people back, says Samuel Brooksworth

How many black British businessmen can you name? Take a minute, I’ll wait. I’m not dismissing the accomplishments of any black men who have reached the heights in the corporate world. But I guarantee many people will struggle to think of more than 10 names. Of FTSE 100 chief executives, there are currently more white men called Steve than there are ethnic minorities in total . Of those five, only one is a black male.

Black people have nothing but the race card why Indians Chinese Romanians etc running successful businesses but with black people it's always racism racism racism gets a bit boring really

In the current series, Sugar fired two excellent candidates with great potential in the first couple of weeks. Two black men. Yeah...

Yea... play the race card to get attention...

Just wondering what colour the vast majority of business men in Africa are?

If you decided to make a racist investigation, do it at 360 degrees...🙄

There’s been plenty of research into elite firms’ admission practices that show unique discrimination towards black men. One element is passion being perceived as aggression, which stems from the aggressive black male stereotype.

What does it matter , if u are black or white ?

I don't trust anybody in a suit. I've had accountants steal from me, lawyers scam me, judge lied to me, detectives who could care less. It is the universal symbol of liars, cheaters and scammers everywhere. The homeless have more integrity than these slimeballs in $1000 suits.
