I make no value judgement on that decision. (As I personally could care less - and no doubt fall outside the scope of that department as I don't qualify for any of the leadership/promotion courses that they run. What with me being a straight, white, atheist male I don't require any extra 'help' - although if I were a gay, black woman I'd probably resent the thought that I 'needed' help. But then, I am full of resentment normally and I'm no expert on race politics apart from everyone bleeds the same colour).
