HRchat Podcast

Can workplace culture be the key to unlocking true diversity and inclusion? Join guest host Bob Goodwin as he sits down with Johnny C. Taylor Jr., CEO and President of SHRM, to uncover the rationale behind SHRM's much-talked-about shift from DEI (Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion) to I&D (Inclusion and Diversity). Together, they delve into the heart of what it means to foster inclusion and embrace a broad definition of diversity, all while maintaining an unwavering commitment to equity. Johnny also introduces SHRM's "One Million Civil Conversations" initiative, designed to promote respectful dialogue in the workplace, tackling the societal challenge of assuming good intentions and the necessity of training for a more inclusive environment.
Explore the pivotal role of workplace culture in championing diversity with insights from our conversation on leadership, decision-making, and cultural alignment. Johnny shares how leaders can set the tone for an inclusive environment where diverse viewpoints are celebrated and respected, navigating the complexities that a diverse workforce presents. We discuss the principles of challenging, deciding, and committing to ideas, emphasizing the importance of unity and alignment, especially in a slowing job market.
