In today’s episode, I speak to Cynthia Harris, founder of 8:28 Consulting, live at IIEX North America 2024.

We discussed Cynthia's journey to her current position, the main reason she switched to running her own consulting company, and the concept of Black Joy. We delved into the evolution of diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) over the past two decades, its negative connotations, and Cynthia's suggested approach. We had a blast talking about companies that have successfully implemented DEI practices and shared our experiences of the tangible benefits of prioritizing DEI in research.
