EP 158: Diversity, Equity & Inclusion in the Workplace with Keishia Facey

Today I speak with Keishia Facey. We have a fantastic, in depth conversation on diversity, equity and inclusion in the workplace.  One of her roles is to help organizations address and dismantle systemic racism. Today, she helps us understand the importance of addressing systemic racism in the workplace and ways we can begin to do it. She reminds us that we all own a piece of this as we transform toxic workplaces into ones where people feel safe and diversity, equity and inclusion are considered in every aspect of an organization.  Keishia also is Program Manager for One Vision One Voice.  --  We chat about:  ✔️ why and how is it important to address systemic racism inside organizations  ✔️ organizational well being as it relates to diversity, equity and inclusion.  ✔️ What is a micro aggression? And how does it show up in the workplace?  ✔️ the role leadership plays  ✔️ putting in place equitable systems across the organization  ✔️ uncomfortable conversations -- Read her blog that I use as the jumping off point for our discussion: https://rfwcconsulting.com/blog  --  Connect with Keishia Facey: --  Website: http://www.oacas.org/
