The Elephant

Is equity killing excellence?


Listen Later

In the final episode of The Elephant for 2025, we ask should the workplace reward fairness or flawless performance?

DEI (Diversity, Equity, Inclusioin) promises opportunity for all. MEI (Merit, Excellence says only the best should rise. Miriama Kamo and Mark Crysell bring together Alexia Hilbertidou, Kara Smith, Dr Oliver Hartwich, Katie Bhreatnach, and Yaron Brook to debate the clash dividing bosses, employees, and the culture of success itself.

Who wins, who loses,  and what really makes someone succeed?
