Today we talk about psychological safety, diversity, and inclusivitiy with professor Giovanni Bertotti, Professor in Applied Geology at the TU Delft and also Diversity and Inclusion officer of his Faculty.

We hear about his role as Diversity and Inclusion officer in the complex environment that is a University. We talk about the difficulties of addressing micro aggressions, about the challenge to measure progress with regard to building a safer culture, about the resistance that you encounter when you want to put difficult topics on the table and his attempts to improve the culture from the bottom up by opening up conversations about behaviour on all levels.

Enjoy.
