In this episode, we speak with Dr. Nika White about how you can become intentional about inclusion in the workplace. Nika’s approach to Diversity & Inclusion is not the typical discourse of D&I is important because D&I is important, instead she sees being “inclusion minded” as a leadership competency that everyone should exhibit. Nika truly unpacks what it means to be an intentional inclusionist and offers strategic ways you can rally for an inclusive work environment. You can learn more about Dr. Nika White at nikawhite.com.
