In this episode Alexandra Hodge and Astrid Ferguson discuss diversity and inclusion in the workplace, biases they didn’t realize they had, and the brown eye blue eye experiment by Jane Elliot. Most people think of diversity and inclusion as one of the same but in reality they are separate. In the workplace the main thing that is missing and spent the least amount of time is in, is training. Alexandra who worked in HR many years, particularly in the training department, shares how costly hiring a new person can easily become and human capital being the prime investment for organizations not fully utilized.

Sisters Alexandra and Astrid challenge you to discover your own biases while also discovering the level of engagement provided by your organization for people of color. Hiring people of color just to meet a quota is not conducive and is the antiquated way of looking at diversity and inclusion. Listen to Astrid share what she has learned within the first week of courses of her certification in diversity and inclusion.
