  • Changing the industry: Part 2 of a DE&I-focused podcast series

    In this second podcast of our series devoted to the inaugural Changemakers program, presented by Google in partnership with PRWeek, PRWeek VP and editorial director Steve Barrett speaks with Rosanna Fiske, global CCO of the Royal Caribbean Group and member of the esteemed Changemakers Advisory Board. During their conversation, Fiske calls on the industry to bring the same forward thinking it does in so many other areas to the pursuit of DE&I. She highlights how the creation of a sense of belonging is vital to the retention of diverse talent. Additionally, she reminds us that meaningful, sustainable progress can only occur when all three elements of DE&I – Diversity, Equity and Inclusion – are pursued with the same vigor.

In this first of a five-part podcast series, Corey duBrowa, Google’s VP of global communications and public affairs, speaks with Torod Neptune, SVP, corporate marketing, brand, communications & CCO at Medtronic, about the inspiration behind the Changemakers program, while talking tactically about the collaboration needed between agencies and in-house teams to facilitate tangible, real evolution.
