How are you working towards connecting people in your organization as a leader? Do you have a working strategy in place on diversity, equity, and inclusion? For DEI to work in any organization, leaders must commit to a strategy aimed at connecting people and having them work together. In this episode of the Inspirational Leadership podcast, I speak with Tara Robertson, a diversity, equity, and inclusion consultant and leadership coach. She analyzes qualitative and quantitative HR data to diagnose what companies’ biggest diversity and inclusion issues are and works with internal stakeholders to co-design interventions based on research best practices and experience about what actually moves the needle. Listen in to learn the importance of having an organizational strategy on diversity, equity, and inclusion. You will also learn how to be mindful and fully present in the way you show up as a leader to yourself and others. Key Takeaways: The uncomfortable conversations we need to have to establish a diversity, equity, and inclusion strategy. How to engage your body, heart, and spirit to help you notice when things are not working out. How to achieve mindfulness and be fully present for yourself and others around you. Learn and take action to disrupt discriminatory behavior in yourself and others.
