Here are some key takeaways from this episode: An Academic Approach That Doesn't Suit Me I explain why my work to help you differs from traditional academic approaches: "You should know that there are a lot of academics who look down on me for what I'm doing, for the way that I'm sharing this information" A Lack of Vision I discuss why a lack of vision means that some people disapprove of my work: "People who say this to me don't see the big picture because they're too focused on what they can receive instead of focusing on what they can give. This 20th Century approach isn't going to help us in the 21st century, especially regarding employee resource groups" False Conflict I explain a misconception that I've observed in the Diversity & Inclusion space: "I want to consistently and persistently raise the standard to give you the tools that you need to make a difference where you work. As far as I'm concerned, everyone else is a potential ally to make this happen. I try and provide as much value as a I can in a relatively small part of what we can think of as Diversity and Inclusion as a field, don't get me wrong resource groups cut across everything and this is why there is so much room for collaboration" Whenever you're ready, there are a few ways I can support your Inclusion Journey: 1.
