Suzanne Rich Folsom: Insights on Workplace Diversity

Suzanne Rich Folsom is an award-winning General Counsel and experienced Board Member who received the 2014 Leader of the Year Award from Women in Compliance, London. She’s also an in-demand public speaker on the topics of diversity and women in the workplace.

On September 17, 2018, an article titled “#MeToo After Moonves: What Should Companies Be Doing?” was published online in Forbes. The article includes an insightful interview with Suzanne Rich Folsom and other leading female change agents regarding how the Less Moonves scandal was handled, and on what’s needed for true diversity in the boardroom and the future of workplace diversity in general.

“When I talk about strength in numbers, it’s about both women and men having the courage to speak truth to power on these issues,” said Suzanne Rich Folsom. “The board needs to be devoted to a corporate culture that not only fosters diversity but encourages everyone – including women and minorities – to strive for success and aspire to leadership.”  Through her C-Suite roles, Suzanne has seen the positive impact on a corporation that a Board can have when it is comprised of members who are diverse and who also bring to the table diversity of thought and experience.
