    What if fostering a sense of belonging could be the key to overcoming resistance to diversity, equity, and inclusion initiatives in your organisation? Join us for an eye-opening conversation with Cordell Carter, the founding director of the Aspen Institute on Belonging, as he shares his invaluable insights and personal journey. From his unique upbringing as a preacher's kid to his extensive experience at IBM and the Gates Foundation, Cordell offers a compelling narrative on how creating environments where employees feel seen, heard, and valued can drive both personal fulfilment and organisational success.

    In this episode, Cordell emphasises the crucial link between organisational culture and inclusive growth, offering practical steps to cultivate an inclusive environment. Learn how simple yet impactful actions, such as a monthly book club, can build trust and understanding across all levels of your organisation. We also discuss the pyramid model of equity, equality, inclusion, and diversity, and the importance of executives understanding the 'why' behind belonging, inspired by Simon Sinek's principles. Tune in to discover how you can implement these strategies to motivate and retain talent while creating a culture of opportunity and belonging for all.
