Corrs Chambers Westgarth joined Out Leadership in May 2020. One of Australia’s top law firms, Corrs strives to be an inclusive employer to those in the LGBTQ+ community. Even though they joined in the midst of the coronavirus pandemic, they have been an active member of Out Leadership since joining. They were featured as a case study in our Australia supplement of AllyUp, our global allyship research published in 2020, and in 2021, Heidi Roberts, the Diversity and Inclusion Partner at the firm and the Chair of the Diversity Council, spoke at our virtual Australia Summit.
Corrs hosted the OutNEXT session as part of our 2022 Australia Summit, welcoming 50+ emerging LGBTQ+ leaders to their Sydney headquarters last October. After such a successful summit down under, we are thrilled to be returning to Sydney for WorldPride next month. Corrs, led by Senior Partner & CEO Gaven MacLaren, is hosting our OutQUORUM Board Diversity Dinner as part of Out Leadership’s WorldPride activation. The roundtable dinner will feature a structured conversation on LGBTQ+ inclusive board diversity in Australia — to inquire about attendance, contact events@outleadership.com.
