I'm excited to be here. HOST: Can you tell us a bit about your personal experiences that led you to specialize in diversity and inclusion? GUEST: Absolutely! I've worked in various industries where I noticed a lack of representation and opportunities for underrepresented groups. This sparked my interest in promoting diversity and fostering inclusive workplaces. HOST: Fascinating! Now, what current industry trends should our listeners be aware of in relation to this course? GUEST: There's a growing emphasis on intersectionality and allyship, recognizing that diverse identities intersect and that allyship is crucial for true inclusion. HOST: That sounds important. What challenges have you faced or observed when teaching this subject? GUEST: One challenge is helping learners uncover their own biases, as it can be uncomfortable but necessary for growth. HOST: Indeed, it takes courage to confront our own biases. Lastly, where do you see the future of diversity and inclusion in the workplace? GUEST: I believe the future is bright, with more organizations prioritizing D&I initiatives, but there's still much work to be done to ensure equitable opportunities for all.
