Tamara is a founding member of the 30% Club and has been influential in encouraging corporations and law firms to diversify their boards by increasing the proportion of women. Tamara is a driven campaigner for increasing the number of women in positions of seniority both within Reed Smith and the wider business community.
The 2018 Champions of Women in Business were selected by the FT & HERoes judging panel. Each person was scored on the seniority and influence of their role, their work done internally and externally to champion women, their recent and significant business achievements and the testimonial provided with their nomination.
Founder of INvolve and HERoes, Suki Sandhu, said: “These lists have been created with one aim – to create gender parity in workplaces across the globe. The role models we’re recognising aren’t just those who have achieved success themselves – they’re those who are committed to lifting others with them as they climb, and ultimately fueling the female talent pipeline.
“As evidenced by the recent reporting of gender pay gap data across the UK, the quest for workplace gender equality is not complete. All of our champions are inspiring the next generation of female talent who will go on to obliterate the glass ceiling. Ultimately, through these lists we hope to encourage individuals and businesses to stand up and work together to drive change not just in workplaces, but across society as a whole.”
