If you've ever wondered how to create a more diverse—not to mention profitable and fulfilling—team, this episode is for you.

Malia Lazu is the visionary founder of The Lazu Group, and has spent her life supporting diversity and urban entrepreneurship everywhere from the streets of Boston as a community organizer to the C-suite at Berkshire Bank.

In this wide-ranging podcast, Steve and Malia discuss key points found in her new book, From Intention to Impact, published by MIT Press. You will discover:

• Where to begin with DEI work at your business, even if you are a lean team, so you can both make more money and create a more just world
• What are the 3Ls and how they can help you authentically connect with any community you want to see reflected in your team
• How to navigate the pushback that emerges with real change, i.e. cries of reverse discrimination or lowering the bar, so you can create real impact while growing your business
