DEI isn’t just a moral stance... it’s a business imperative.
In this powerful conversation, Dr. V Boykin breaks down the real cost of being Black in business and how diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) directly impact revenue, market opportunities, and leadership dynamics. From overcoming systemic barriers to navigating corporate spaces, Dr. V shares hard truths about the modern workplace, allyship, and the underestimated power of Black buying power.
In this episode, we cover:
- Why all products are inherently “woke” and what that means for business
- How to measure DEI impact and create sustainable, profitable change
- Recognizing privilege and injustice and accepting accountability while embracing change
- How to maintain individuality, light, and confidence while navigating injustice in the workplace
- The business case for DEI and why ignoring it is a costly mistake
- How allyship goes beyond good intentions to real action
- And much more
If you’re ready for a raw, unfiltered look at DEI, leadership, and the future of equity in business, this is the masterclass episode you need to hear.
