Could leadership rooted in empathy be the game-changer in today’s diverse, multi-generational workplaces? In this timely episode, I welcome the remarkable father-daughter team, James and Krista White, to explore the pressing topic of anti-racist leadership. In this enlightening discussion, the Whites share the powerful synergy behind their book, a fusion of CEO-level wisdom with a millennial’s fresh take on diversity, equity, and inclusion. The episode highlights how the journey towards a truly inclusive corporate culture involves confronting common pitfalls and embracing Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion as non-negotiable elements that power a company’s heart and soul. James and Krista dissect the unfortunate tendency of sidelining DEI during tough times and advocate for hiring practices that celebrate cultural enhancement rather than mere fit. Our discussion brings to light how a strong DEI focus not only enriches company culture but also fosters innovation and retention, which are integral elements to any organization’s success. As we wrap up this rich dialogue, we examine the strategic roles that Chief Diversity Officers and middle managers play in shaping and maintaining a diverse environment.
