E27: How Will You Rewrite the DEI Story to Build a Different Narrative?
How can DEI survive if the story's narrative assumes that we are less than and need help becoming more than?
In this episode of Inclusion Unscripted, Margaret Spence will address how we narrate the DEI story. She feels that our DEI Story cannot be "Poor, pitiful you," and along comes a big organization to rescue us from ourselves. The story doesn't define the people – the DEI data is a person – the process requires not only vision but compelling storytelling – most people don't know how to reframe the story. But we should teach them because it's our story.
Before we can effectively create change that impacts our existence, we must be willing to rewrite our story and demand that others tell our story the right way. The narrative of diversity has a story. But unfortunately, it is built on pity…poor, underserved person needs a helping hand to get ahead.
The targeted question is – how will you rewrite the DEI story to build a different narrative? We are often wedded to our story, which leaves us stuck in the same description, unable to look through a new lens. Join us live on LinkedIn, YouTube, and Facebook on Friday, September 9th, at 2 pm EST, or listen to the replay on your favorite podcast app.
