Episode summary
Join host, César Gamio and Sasha Graham for a riveting exploration into the world of Diversity, Equality, and Inclusion (DEI). Their journey reveals that DEI is not just a box-ticking exercise for legal compliance, but a pivotal element in creating a vibrant and fair workplace culture. Sasha, wielding her martial arts background like a katana of wisdom, slices through the complexities of DEI, highlighting the silent battles many women face in UK workplaces and offering a beacon of hope for companies aiming to champion inclusivity.
The conversation transcends the surface-level understanding of DEI, steering into the impact of representation, the power of inclusive practices, and the significance of company policies that resonate with issues like menopause.

With anecdotes that strike a chord, like the infamous Kanye interruption of Taylor Swift, their discussion underpins the necessity for inclusive behavior in every facet of business interaction.
