EP43: Understanding Belongingness with DEI expert Dr Nika White

Priority Status

In today’s episode, JPR’s SVP Kristin Moller sits down with Dr. Nika White, an award-winning management and leadership consultant and executive practitioner for DEI efforts. The conversation is an inside look at Dr White’s practice and how she got to where she is today. We discuss her approach to “intentional inclusion” in leadership, what that means as we navigate a new era of awareness in workplace culture and what belongingness - giving a voice to those may not have had a voice before - means for an organization. We also discuss how George Floyd's murder, the BLM movement and recent attacks against Asian-American people in Atlanta have brought awareness and change to society through awful circumstances and what it means for cultural and socioeconomic growth in the US moving forward.
