In this episode of The Spartan Scoop, Chris is joined by AU Career Counselor Tory Nair for a thoughtful conversation on the NACE competency of Equity & Inclusion. They explore why this skill is essential in today’s diverse, multi-generational workforce and how inclusion goes far beyond numbers or statements on a company website. From building open-mindedness and curiosity to recognizing different backgrounds, experiences, and perspectives, this episode highlights how equity and inclusion show up in everyday workplace interactions. Tory also shares practical ways students can develop this competency through campus involvement, internships, and reflection—and how to clearly demonstrate equity and inclusion skills on resumes and in interviews while evaluating whether employers truly live out these values.
