What is a human leader in an AI, mechanised world and does it matter? Find out in this episode of The Human Leader Podcast.

What does fairness really mean in a world built on inequality?

In this deeply reflective episode, your host Colleen Davis takes us on a personal and historical journey—unpacking the complex truths behind meritocracy, privilege, and belonging in South Africa and beyond. From apartheid laws to the global backlash against DEI, Colleen explores how systems of exclusion were built—and why inclusion and equity are essential if we want to build something better.

Through powerful storytelling, bold questions, and honest reflection, this episode challenges the idea that “treating everyone the same” is the same as being fair—and reminds us that real leadership means creating space for all voices, not just the ones that have always been heard.

Whether you're leading a team, a business, or just trying to lead yourself well in a complex world, this episode is for you.

🌀 Privilege is real. Equity is necessary. Inclusion is strength. Belonging is the goal.

Tune in, reflect, and share—because the future depends on the conversations we’re willing to have today.
