We're back with a new season of How Government Built This! This year, our theme is "Strengthening and Empowering our People and Culture", and we'll be looking at how applying the principles of Diversity, Equity, Inclusion and Accessibility (DEIA) can promote innovation within an organization.

In this episode, we're joined by Javier Inclán and Glorimar Maldonado to discuss the concept of "psychological safety" in the workplace and how it paves the way for employee empowerment.

Javier is the Assistant Inspector General for Management and CIO in the Office of Inspector General of the National Science Foundation.

Glorimar is a Diversity Officer at the United States Patent and Trademark Office.

Thank you to the National Council of Hispanic Employment Program Managers for co-sponsoring this episode.
