Olivia waited through six slides before speaking.
“What’s the retention rate for those hires after two years?”
Marcus paused.
“I don’t have that exact figure in front of me.”
“How many have moved into senior leadership in the last five years?”
Marcus looked at Leonard.
Leonard stepped in.
“We’ve made meaningful progress.”
“That wasn’t my question,” Olivia said.
Marcus swallowed.
Olivia saw it.
Saw the small flinch in his shoulders.
Saw a good man trying to answer honestly while working for people who had taught him honesty had a ceiling.
“How many?” she asked again, softer this time.
Marcus opened his mouth.
The door swung open before he could answer.
Five more executives entered.
All white men in their fifties.
