Inclusion: Moving Beyond the Buzzwords - #DTHR

Join us for this week’s episode when Mike and Robin talk to Katee Van Horn with Bar the Door Consulting and Coaching. Katee is a diversity and inclusion speaker, coach and strategist whose previous roles include VP of Global Engagement and Inclusion at GoDaddy. (We’re going to make her tell a quick story of what she and her team did there – because it’s fascinating!)

Creating a diverse and inclusive workforce involves more than just adjusting your hiring practices. As Katee has pointed out “you can’t just add numbers; hiring ten African American women is great, but if they don’t have a great experience and don’t have the opportunity to move up the ranks, they’re going to leave.

What else do we intend to talk about? Here’s what we’re planning:

• Understanding Intersectionality
• The importance of thinking about “balanced teams and underrepresented groups” vs. “diversity”
• What companies can do to start (or continue) their journey to nurturing an inclusive culture
