Allyship in Action

115: Lenora Billings-Harris - Why Diversity & Inclusion is not "Political"


Listen Later

Lenora Billings-Harris has been leading diversity and inclusion work across the world for 25+ years.  She shares her personal "why" story for this work dating back to 1994 in South Africa that builds the so important human case for diversity.  

Together, we discuss

  • Why diversity & inclusion is unfairly perceived as "political" and therefore hard to talk about
  • Her B-BASIC techniques for allyship
  • What it means to be an ally vs. an advocate
  • D&I as a team metaphor - diversity is the make-up of the team and inclusion is how the team behaves
