Calgary Mayor Naheed Nenshi: Nenshi says the city's top leadership positions are dominated by men and that it needs to make sure there's more diversity all around, according to CTV. He says managers should match the people they manage and Calgary Mayor Naheed Nenshi says City Hall isn't diverse enough and is looking to see if there is anything in the city's promotion policies that is preventing it from getting the best qualified employees. "As an employer, and we're a very large employer, we do a really good job of hiring a diverse workforce, a workforce that reflects the city that we serve however we haven't done a great job in the past of promoting that workforce internally to positions of leadership and so we have to ask ourselves questions about, are there any inadvertent or unthinking or systemic biases that are preventing us from finding the best qualified people for those leadership jobs?" said Nenshi.
