In October, M&G’s diversity and inclusion network, Embrace, celebrated Black History Month with a series of events focused on this year’s theme, Reclaiming Narratives.   Our variety of activities aimed to be educational, empowering, and fun, and included panel discussions attended by our business leaders, the London School Samba hosting dance classes for colleagues, and a wine tasting of award-winning Black-owned and produced wines from Our Sommelier.   M&G also hosted this year’s STRETCH conference on behalf of Career Masterclass, and we were delighted that its CEO Amanda Pullinger was able to join us at our London headquarters and participate in a discussion with Mark McLane, M&G’s Head of Diversity, Inclusion and Wellbeing.   The conference was another highlight in a month of inspiring events and sparked positive engagement around career growth opportunities.   Watch the video below.   #BlackHistoryMonth | #Embrace | #STRETCH2024
