Can DEI Efforts Succeed in a Hybrid Workplace?

The last year has hastened the rise of the most crucial changes to the way we work: hybrid workplaces and large-scale commitments to DEI. But do DEI efforts fall short when colleagues can’t see each other in person? First, Carolyn talks with author, speaker, and DEI consultant Minda Harts for a look at what she sees as the most important learnings from lockdown — and the importance of making sure racialized employees aren’t being left behind as we return to work. Then, Frances Frei & Anne Morriss are back to highlight for Lindsay and Carolyn the places where they believe remote offices can be a boon for DEI work.

Minda’s books, The Memo: What Women of Color Need to Do to Secure a Seat at the Table and Right Within: How to Heal from Racial Trauma in the Workplace, are available wherever books are sold.  You can find Frances & Anne on LinkedIn and Twitter, theleadersguide.com, and every Tuesday and Friday on Clubhouse.
