There are many paths into DEI(B); mine involved two concurrent tracks. I was in school for my PhD and found broader impacts research (academic term) and was simultaneously working on DEI initiatives in the Army (enlisted side).

HiAll, My lead resigned and my manager informed me just 2 weeks before her lwd on this and asked me to take up all their responsibilities.

I have tried many ways to release me from this project . But manager is really amendment to release as there is no senior member in the team.

Could use some help with an awkward dynamic.

My Dept has been tapped to help another dept promote a DEI study. The client dept has hired a consultant in this area. The challenges I see with this consultant's work style:

-dominating conversations
-micromanaging things outside her area
-steering things toward her own promotion over our company's agenda
-people in my dept (mostly white) are visibly uncomfortable and reluctant to interrupt or contradict her (black woman)

(Cont'd)

Does anyone have any experiences they feel comfortable sharing where DEI was an integral part of the company instead of an after thought/"trending" initiative?
