Episode Synopsis

“It is about how you operationalize it, how you look at every piece of your business, including your finances. Who does the money go to? What do you fund? What do you not fund? Who do you promote? Who do you compensate fairly? Who do you not? How do you make sure that what you say on paper is lived out in practice?” - Dynasti Hunt
The 1964 Civil Rights Act Title VII brought us equal opportunity employment legislation which spelled out the way companies were no longer allowed to discriminate in their hiring, promotion, and firing.
But multiple discrimination lawsuits filed with the Equal Opportunity Employment Commission in the late 1960s and early 1970s led to companies being mandated to complete anti-discriminatory training. This was how DEI was introduced to the business world.
Sixty-plus years later, we have learned that the best approach is not holding several one-off trainings, but instead weaving DEI principles into business practices.
In this episode, DEI consultant Dynasti Hunt shares with us what DEI really means, questions for an organization to consider when hiring a DEI consultant, and the top questions she asks when starting to work with an organization.
