Join us as we explore what we as DEI consultants can do to ensure that DEI efforts are not checkbox exercises! We’re drawing on the experience, expertise, and hard-earned wisdom of two of DiVerity’s advisors, Cornell Verdeja-Woodson (He/Him) and Tara Robertson. Cornell Verdeja-Woodson is Founder & CEO of Brave Trainings LLC (http://bravetrainings.com/), whose mission it is to provide a starting point for organizations to unpack sensitive diversity topics through authentic dialogue and consistent action.
Tara Robertson brings nearly 15 years experience leading change in open source technology communities and corporate spaces, including 3 years leading Diversity and Inclusion at Mozilla. Tara now partners as a consultant with technology, engineering and media leaders to help drive systemic change. Her work has been included in Harvard Business Review, Forbes and other publications. Head to Tara Robertson Consulting Inc. or https://tararobertson.ca/ to learn more!
So, how can we move beyond “going through the motions” in our DEI efforts to really get some traction on creating positive social change, not only in the workplace, but beyond it? For the answer to that question and more, stay tuned! We’ll be talking about moving beyond the performative/virtue-signaling that so often happens with organizational DEI efforts, but also about accountability—not only for our clients, but for us as DEI professionals as well!
