DEI is NOT Dead! Out of Favour but More Important Than Ever - with Gardy Guiteau
Description
Right, rebels, we need to talk.
You’ve probably heard the whispers - DEI is out of fashion, companies are quietly shelving their initiatives, and the world seems to be moving backwards.
But here’s the thing: just because something is out of favour doesn’t mean it’s not essential.
In fact, it’s more important than ever.
Today, I’m joined by the brilliant Gardy Guiteau, a powerhouse in this space, to unpack what’s really happening, why fear is driving the backlash, and what leaders need to do next.
Join me.
Highlights:
(4:11) Challenges in DEI Work
(7:54) Niceness vs. Authenticity
(16:33) Historical Context and Lessons
(26:10) Addressing Fear and Resistance
(40:01) Managing Polarisation and Fostering Inclusion
