Christian is a true advocate for celebrating diversity and furthering the inclusion agenda at Diageo. Christian was appointed leader of Diageo’s 2021 Global Inclusivity Week, an employee-led week encouraging colleagues around the world to have open conversations about a range of important and challenging topics. Leading a team of 30+ people, Christian helped to arrange over 25 virtual panels, discussions and networks about topics including inclusivity, gender identity, hate crime, religion, and disability which were attended by employees globally. In Hungary, his dedication has seen him create several employee campaigns to raise awareness of the need for more professional counselling and mental health support for LGBT+ colleagues following recent legislation changes in Hungary which have negatively impacted the community. Despite the current political environment, as leader of our Budapest employee Rainbow Network, Christian demonstrated that Diageo is committed to inclusion by marching under the company’s flag at Budapest Pride 2021 with over 60 colleagues.
