Becoming an inclusive leader and valuing DEI in the workplace is more important than ever. Leaders are expected to be more vocal about their core values and live them out loud, but this is still uncharted territory for many.

Moving too fast, saying the wrong thing, or not being fully certain of what is important to you and your business is what my guest, 6x author, DEI consultant, and Managing Partner of Uplifting Impact, Deanna Singh, is going to help you overcome in our latest episode.

Listen in as my former client shines a light on how you can embrace your values, create safe spaces at work, and be inspired to become a DEI advocate out of compassion for others–instead of just checking the DEI box on your list of things you're expected to do as a business owner.

In this episode of the podcast, we talk about:

Recruiting opportunities for everyone to thrive
Starting with people to people
DEI Bat Signals
Staying connected to your core values
Not becoming a fictional character
Social Media as community service
Is social media replacing social interaction?
Her 1:1 LinkedIn Connection Strategy

…And More!
