Think diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) is just about race and gender? Think again. DEI frameworks impact nearly everyone—veterans, parents, caregivers, disabled individuals, and more—by breaking down barriers to success and ensuring true merit can shine.
In this episode, we tackle the biggest misconceptions about DEI, including the idea that it undermines meritocracy (hint: it actually strengthens it). We explore how everyday policies—like family leave and accessibility accommodations—are DEI in action and why businesses should focus on outcomes over political rhetoric.
You don’t need a corporate mandate to foster inclusion. We break down three practical DEI frameworks that work in any environment and share how leaders can implement meaningful change within their teams: collective accountability, intervention-based approaches, and systemic change mechanisms. Whether you're leading a department or running an enterprise, this conversation will show you how DEI drives real business impact—no buzzwords required.
Join us for a candid, no-nonsense discussion about keeping DEI relevant, practical, and effective—because when done right, it’s not just about fairness. It’s smart business.
