Shownotes

In this episode, Kenyatta Sinclair of the Greater Milwaukee Foundation shares why inclusion, humanity, and people feeling seen and valued are the most critical elements of doing transformational work. An equity, diversity and inclusion leader with more than two decades of experience, Sinclair also lifts what she sees as the differences between proformative, or symbolic, change verus true systemic chance.

She also discusses how organizations can create more equitable opportunities for all employees. This timely, important conversation will help organizations of all sizes create more inclusive workplaces.

Episode Highlights:

05:45 - Without the inclusion, nobody's talking about racial equity because you have to see the person and their humanity first.

07:19 - For me the inclusion is the secret sauce. It's where we find out where we came from, where we find out what we have in common, where we find out that we aren't so different.

12:58 - I want to lift up neighborhoods and I want to lift up groups of people who said we aren't waiting on government anymore, we aren't waiting on organizations anymore.

26:08 - That's why we practice self care because we know the emotional tax that goes along with this work and that's also why everybody has to take their share of it.

37:56 - Definitely faith and God, we don't live as people without hope, I don't see myself being able to exist and function if I'm hopeless.
