23: How businesses can improve diversity and inclusion with Dr Stefanie Johnson

This week we’ve got our large sea-going vessel out of dry dock once again to go across the pond to catch Dr. Stefanie K. Johnson; author, speaker and professor of Management at the University of Colorado Boulder’s Leeds School of Business.  Stefanie has come a long way since discovering in her first jobthat a children’s ball pit is the most disgusting place on earth. She is now one of the world’s leading authorities on improving diversity and inclusion in business and has published over 70 journal articles and book chapters for the likes of Harvard Business Review and Journal of Applied Psychology.  Stefanie has achieved stellar coverage with media giants such as The Economist, The Guardian, Time and CNN, while her learning partners on diversity and inclusion include Netflix, Starbucks and P&G, amongst many other household brand names. She talks to us on defining bias, the ABC’s of how to break it, how businesses can improve diversity and inclusion, leadership, her life as a professor, swing dancing at a Mexican wedding and a whole lot more./////Stefanie:Follow Stefanie on LinkedIn.On the Twitter.And on Instagram.You can pre-order her new book Inclusify.Watch Stefanie's brilliant talk at Nudgestock 2019.Stefanie’s website.Book Recommendations: The Person You Mean to Be by Dolly Chugh Good to Great by Jim Collins Alchemy by Rory Sutherland /////
