In this episode of The Jump Podcast, Michelle Loret de Mola and Dev Patnaik dive headfirst into the DEI discussionand why so many companies are getting it wrong. From major brands walking back diversity initiatives to activist investors applying pressure, the duo unpacks what’s performative, what’s purposeful, and what actually drives business success. They spotlight smart strategies from companies like Costco, Apple, and Diageo, and challenge the false meritocracy narratives that have crept back into corporate culture. If you're trying to figure out how to build a workforce that reflects the future—not the past—this one’s a must-listen.
