Diversity and Inclusion with MSgt Shana Echevarria

The RDC had opportunity to sit down in the Air Force Chief of Chaplains conference room at the Pentagon with MSgt Shana Echevarria for a discussion about diversity and inclusion.  MSgt Echevarria has been talking to Chaplains and Religious Affairs Airmen about how those concepts come into play across the Chaplain Corps.  She has some observations that will help leaders everywhere better value all the people on their teams along with the unexpected gifts and talents team members bring to the mission.Here is a link to the graphic that Chaplain Hudson references early in the podcast that shows the difference between equality and equity:  https://artplusmarketing.com/equality-equity-freedom-55a1d675b5d8 (Note: external link--we do not endorse or necessarily agree with the material at the link, the link is provided for illustrative purposes).Here's a link to the publishers web site for the  book "Difficult Conversations" referenced by Chaplain Boarts (no endorsement is implied): https://www.penguinrandomhouse.com/books/331191/difficult-conversations-by-douglas-stone-bruce-patton-and-sheila-heen/9780143118442/
