In this week's episode, I speak with Julie who started her career in the corporate world but quickly realized that the leadership team didn't look a lot like her. And she saw that every place she went. She found her purpose helping teams create more diverse leadership teams and becoming more inclusive across the organization. Especially this year this has become such an important topic for companies to address and Julie is passionate about helping them build a strategy and helping leaders become allies for others.
