How to Improve Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion in Companies

Last Updated on May 10, 2021 by Owen McGab Enaohwo

Nowadays, equality is a big thing.

Everyone deserves equal opportunity, no matter their background or orientation.

That’s why diversity, equity, and inclusion in companies are in constant need of improvement to help people who are new and from different backgrounds fit in and feel like they belong.

Michon Pinnix, COO at Chimera Bioengineering, stresses the importance of this on today’s podcast episode of the Process Breakdown Podcast with Dr. Jeremy Weisz.

She and Dr. Weisz also discuss innovations in the fight against cancer, new breakthroughs at her company as well as recruitment, and retainment of workers.

They also talk about the value of contribution and the improvement of diversity, equity and inclusion in companies.
