Here Comes Everyone by The Conference Bard
Originally called "Uncanceled & Unplugged" this podcast was conceived at the outset of the Covid crisis in North America. Being a conference designer I knew a lot of people who had expected to be speaking at events in the subsequent months having them canceled or postponed. So I launched the podcast to provide them with an alternative platform.In August, several months into the pandemic, it was clear that most event organizers had shifted to virtual events and no one was getting canceled anymore.So the podcast has now become "Here Comes Everyone". The name reflects the huge variety of guests we've had in the last few months and the intention to focus a bit more on issues of Diversity, Equity, Inclusion and Belonging.

Religion at Work with Leslie Funk, Senior Workplace Program Associate, Tanenbaum Center for Interreligious Understanding
Religion, or faith at work, is a critical dimension of Diversity and Inclusion but one that too often doesn't get the attention it deserves. Founded in 1992, The Tanenbaum Centre works to foster greater understanding between people of different faiths and is a great resource for those looking to incoporporate religion or faith into their DEI practice.
For this episode of Here Comes Everyone I'm joined by Leslie Funk who will share her insights into the dynamics of religion in the workplace. With faith and religion being such a central part of many people's identity this episode is also essential listening for anyone working in the area of workplace culture or who believes that workplaces are best when we can all be our whole authentic selves.
