Episode Synopsis

Sara Taylor is the president and founder of deepSEE Consulting. She is a nationally-recognized speaker and consultant specializing in the areas of leadership, diversity, and organizational effectiveness. With over 25-years of experience, Sara balances her real-life anecdotes with research-based theories to deliver for her reader what she delivers for her clients. What you'll learn about in this episode: Why a single study claiming that diversity training doesn't work is not representative of reality Why people wouldn't pay much heed to a headline claiming "math education doesn't work", and why the same should be true for diversity training Sara reads a news article, but she swaps the words "diversity training" for "math education" to prove how biased the article is Why a one-off training seminar on diversity doesn't bring many benefits, and why the true solution is a long-term systemic approach Why organizations need to invest the time and resources into diversity and inclusion training that works, now more than ever Why perpetuating negative stereotypes about diversity training in a time when it is most needed is irresponsible Additional resources: Website: www.deepseeconsulting.com
