Listen "EP8: Bloom For All – Diversity, Equity & Inclusion"
Episode Synopsis
Think you know about Diversity, Equity & Inclusion (DE&I) or maybe you find it all a bit overwhelming? The landscape of DE&I is ever evolving and it’s hard to know where to start or why you should be invested.
In this episode we focus on Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion - with all three being closely linked values which are held by many organisations that are working to be supportive of different groups of individuals. It’s an increasingly important topic and is being spoken about more often which is really important!
At Bloom North, we are proud to have a DE&I committee who have embarked on a learning journey over the past year, and they shared a lot of the learnings around allyship, personal privilege and unconscious bias with a group of us at a recent event in Manchester.
In this podcast we delve even further into the subject, where Rachael is joined by Naomi Chapman, Client Partner at Spotify and member of Bloom’s DE&I committee and Eduardo Diaz-Ward, who flies the flag for DE&I within his organisation and our podcast sponsor - Channel Factory - where he works as their Sales Director.

Eduardo and Naomi talked to us about being brave, going above and beyond the rainbow, and how you can begin having the conversations that need happen in order to start seeing change.
