Diversity, Equity, Inclusion and Belonging (DEIB)
Matt & Becs are in conversation this month with Pinky Ghadiali, CEO of Netwomen

Together we talk about inclusive leadership coaching, creating an inclusive workplace and fostering equity, women becoming leaders and connection between culture and gender.
