What happened to DEI? It’s up to allies to do better | Sean Leavitt | TEDxGreensboro
Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion (DEI) efforts are in trouble. DEI is collapsing under the nationwide efforts to squelch it. The workplace and marketplace demands we do better, and it's up to Allies. Sean Leavitt, CEO of Maclens Inclusive Leadership, brings 30+ years of inclusive business leadership and 20 years as a certified Diversity practitioner. He develops inclusive leadership skills for mid-to-senior-level executives, helping them see, respect, and leverage diversity as a competitive advantage. Sean’s unique perspective as a white male allows him to bridge gaps and advocate for increasing white male involvement in DEI initiatives. His holistic offerings are tailored to drive sustainable culture change aligned with an organization’s mission and strategic objectives.“See, respect, leverage diversity. To reform DEI, white men have a key role in driving inclusion.” This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community.
