Humanism Now | Secular Ethics, Curiosity and Compassionate Change 47. Victoria Mattingly on The Human Side of DEI: Transforming Workplaces Through Data-Driven Inclusion
“Inclusion is the behaviors that result in others feeling valued, respected, seen and heard.”
Dr. Victoria Mattingly (Dr. V)—industrial-organizational psychologist, CEO & founder of Mattingly Solutions, and co-author of Inclusalytics—joins us to show how rigorous data and deeply human connection can coexist. We unpack practical, measurable ways to build cultures of belonging—at work and in communities—where people can thrive as their authentic selves.
