Sandeep Tatla: Let's talk about race!

In episode 3 of the Her Climb podcast Sandeep Tatla and I talk about diversity and inclusion in corporate Canada. First there was the business case, followed by targets for gender diversity, and now organizations are ready to talk about race. Terms like #blacklivesmatter and social justice are making their way into boardrooms. In fact, Globe and Mail recently published an article, “Canadians increasingly seeking stances on social issues from their employers”. We also talk about conforming to fit in - what it takes for BIPOC survive and/or thrive in corporations.  This leaves one thinking what kind of engagement does a corporation get when employees have to leave behind or shed a fundamental part of who they are?
