Here Comes Everyone by The Conference Bard

Highlights of my conversation with DEI leader Peter Trevor Wilson about the current reckoning with race and equity

John Brewer

The June 22 episode featuring Peter Trevor Wilson was both the longest and the most popular episode to date.  This episode allows you to hear the highlights of this conversation.

As the President of TWI International and the author of two books, the latest of which was The Human Equity Advantage: Beyond Diversity to Talent Optimization, Peter has been a tireless and inspirational advocate for greater inclusion in organizations based upon our common humanity.

Drawing on this experience, plus his own life story, he shares his insights into the current moment and how we must all seize this opportunity to create equitable societies, institutions and organizations.

Though short, Peter Trevor manages to cover a lot of ground including:

1.What makes this moment different and how we need to grasp this opportunity to create a more just society
2. How employers can best respond -  and most importantly what not to do
3. The need to see that inclusion applies to everyone
3. What he tells his kids about diversity and equity
4. The need to understand history and rethink justice based on African and Indigenous North American traditions
