In this spirited episode of Monster in My Closet – Into the Shadows, we invite Kristen Knepper, DEI expert and recovering attorney, back to the podcast to explore the eerie intersection of culture and diversity, equity, and inclusion. Join us as we shine a ghostly light on the invisible barriers, haunting missteps, and spectral resistance that keep organizations from truly embracing inclusivity.
Kristen and the team discuss the chilling realities of surface-level policies, the unspoken fears that sabotage change, and how to exorcise the corporate goblins of moral licensing and performative allyship. With data as our ouija board and some not-so-deadly honesty, we delve into the habits, leadership mindsets, and cultural shifts required to stop DEI initiatives from becoming just another hollow specter in the workplace.
What you'll take away from this episode:
- Why culture is the lifeblood of DEI—and how to operationalize values for long-term impact.
- How to identify and overcome the lurking resistance to DEI initiatives.
- Practical strategies to build inclusive habits and bake them into your organizational DNA.
