It is with profound joy that we share with you our first annual report. Over the past three years, the Black Executives Network has sought to create a network that provides Black executives in the federal public service with a sense of community, while working with the Government of Canada to address issues of systemic anti-Black racism in the public service. In this report, we share with you BEN/REN’s stories, achievements, challenges, and our collective joys.
 +
 +
We have made positive strides but there remains much more to be done. We are committed to creating the conditions that will enable Black executives to flourish and ensure that the federal public service is representative, equitable and inclusive for Black talent.

Amis du BEN/REN,
 +
 +
Nous avons l’immense joie de vous transmettre notre premier rapport annuel. Au cours des trois dernières années, le Réseau des exécutifs noirs s’est employé à créer un réseau qui offre aux cadres noirs de la fonction publique fédérale le sentiment d’appartenir à une communauté, et ce, en travaillant avec le gouvernement du Canada pour résoudre les problèmes de racisme systémique anti-noir dans la fonction publique. Dans ce rapport, nous vous racontons les histoires du BEN/REN, ses réalisations et ses défis, ainsi que nos joies collectives.
 +
 +
Nous avons réalisé des avancées positives, mais il y a encore beaucoup à faire. Nous sommes déterminés à mettre en place les conditions qui permettront aux cadres noirs de se réaliser et à garantir que la fonction publique fédérale soit représentative, équitable et inclusive pour tous les talents noirs.

To support the Clerk’s Call to Action to eliminate anti-Black racism and the government’s commitment to sponsor Black employees and support career mobility, BEN/REN is leading the creation of a government-wide talent management tool for Black employees. The profiles are compiled and included in an e-Binder to demonstrate the depth and breadth of Black employees who are ready for advancement and promotion and to help inform succession planning, support talent mobility, and increase the representation of Black individuals in the federal workforce. It aims to remove barriers stemming from the racial stereotypes and correct misperceptions around  a shortage of Black talent or that Black talent is difficult to find. Further, it would also help Black employees who lack managerial experience or are experiencing the career impacts of systemic barriers  by introducing their profile to other managers looking to hire talent.
