S08E01 - HR Rescue: Diversity, Equity and Inclusion Issues in 2021

The focus on diversity, equity and inclusion issues has markedly increased in the last year. Since the violent deaths of George Floyd, Breonna Taylor and others shed new light on racism - including in the workplace - many corporate leaders have been compelled to speak up. This has led employers to reevaluate their diversity, equity and inclusion strategies and view them as a must-have rather than a nice-to-have initiative. In this week’s episode, IHR expert Jenni Stone will share five critical issues to watch this year to ensure an organization is taking meaningful steps forward when it comes to DEI.
