Thanks! :-)

Don’t do it unless they pay you. 🙂
If they are serious with their approach they should provide you budget and expectations.
Don’t volunteer or do any free trial. It’s been my experience that they have to be intentional from the top down to not fall into a performative waste of space.

I would ask more questions. What’s the end game or desired outcome? Culture shift? Measuring change? C-suite training? Concrete HR/recruiting systems?

DEI is so difficult to lead or drive from the back. And “they” will let you do all the work while checking boxes and no intention of true equity.

“Job hopper” and “quiet quitting” are all schemes made up by boomers to make you think everything is the employees fault. When in reality people are just getting out of bad situations. Older companies do whatever they can to pay you the least amount and get the max work out of you. Except our generation will just leave amid we’re being mistreated, not complain for 35 years making 50k and 0 advancement.

General question: Is there any room in corporate America for real, actionable DE&I discussions and initiatives?

Is this just how it is?
