119 - Diversity, Equity & Inclusion – The Emerging Chief Attraction in the C-Suite

Littler Principal Cindy-Ann Thomas, Littler’s new Chief Inclusion, Equity and Diversity Officer Paul E. Bateman, and incoming Chief Equity Officer for the City of Baltimore Dana P. Moore provide an enlightening - and inspiring! - look at this new seat in the C-Suite. In this podcast, Cindy-Ann and her guests address, among other issues: Why the creation of this C-Suite position is gaining momentum right now. How such “Chief” designations in this space can make a strategic difference for organizations. Why CDOs can’t be the only ones in charge of navigating organizations through “uncomfortable conversations.” What these emerging leadership roles will require from their respective organizations for sustainable success. How such officers can ensure that their role is not a mere “trend” in response to dynamics of our current era.
