DEI Rollbacks : Finding Strength In Setbacks

from The Inclusive Edge : The Power of Diversity · host Andrea Derbyshire

In this episode we discuss the troubling recent decisions by Meta. But it’s not all bad news. I share how leaning on the community, the Diversity and Inclusion Leaders Group, helped me work through the frustration. Plus, I highlight inspiring examples of organisations like Apple, Costco, and Cisco, who are leading the way with strong DEI commitments.Key takeaways from this episode include:Why Meta’s decisions are harmful: The ethical implications of their changes and how they conflict with international human rights standards.Positive examples: Stories of companies doubling down on inclusion to inspire and guide us forward.Practical strategies: Steps to stay resilient and proactive, such as speaking out, connecting with other champions and listening to employees' experiences.A motivational reminder: Desmond Tutu’s wisdom that even small acts of good can create ripples of change.This episode is your reminder that setbacks don’t define the future—they’re opportunities to reaffirm your commitment to creating fairer, more inclusive spaces. Join me as we unpack this important topic and explore how to stay on the inclusive edge.Support the showConnect with Andrea on LinkedIn https://www.linkedin.com/in/andreajaneconsultancy?utm_source=share&utm_campaign=share_via&utm_content=profile&utm_medium=ios_appJoin the fb  D & I Leaders group :https://www.facebook.com/groups/dandileadersfbgroup/Visit my website and subscribe to my email listwww.andreajaneconsultancy.co.uk
