In a marked change from the racial reckoning that occurred in 2020, some have declared that DEI (diversity, equity and inclusion) is dead. Is it? Where exactly are we with DEI initiatives? In this episode of SoCal Voices, Jonathan Dumas, an organizational psychologist, leadership and career coach, and host of the podcast Highly Visible & A Little Misunderstood, pushes back on the notion that DEI is finished, and shares his insights about his own experience helping companies and individuals do the work that’s needed to fulfill the true intention and purpose of DEI, ensuring that all people in the workplace — and in life — are seen, heard, and valued.
