We are pleased to welcome Beat Calabretti, VP HR/Global Head of Talent at Barry Callebaut, as our new Partner Ambassador. We extend our heartfelt appreciation to Gaby Tschofen, our previous partner ambassador, for her invaluable contributions, and we wish her all the best in her retirement.

Here is what Beat said: “I am very excited to partner with LEAD Network to drive gender, ethnic and cultural diversity at Barry Callebaut.  We are committed to increase diverse representation in leadership and critical roles and to enable equality of opportunity through fairness and transparency. It is vital that we promote openness at all levels of the organization to tackle bias and any form of discrimination. We promote an inclusive working environment where every employee can build a sense of belonging.”
