The 2019 Cultural Leaders Breakfast

On April 9, over 120 guests attended the Greater Philadelphia Cultural Alliance's second annual Cultural Leaders Breakfast at the newly renovated Vue on 50. Focused on cultivating board diversity, this year's event featured a keynote address by Juan Otero, Vice President of Diversity and Inclusion at Comcast NBCUniversal, and presentation by Daria Torres, of the Torres Walls Group, on the Equity Maturity Model.

During the event, Otero discussed how advocating for diversity on boards is a starting point for cultural leaders and how research shows that diversity brings value and leads to more diverse audiences. Torres echoed Otero's statement and shared the Equity Maturity Model, a tool to assess an organization's commitment to diversity "that will dynamically adjust for the conditions."
