Building a DEI Learning & Development Strategy to Grow the Enterprise - a Conversation with Dr. Theoria M. Cason

  • Summary

  • A mind is a terrible thing to waste - UNCF Slogan

    It's a missed opportunity... Unrealized growth potential .....
    That's what happens when DEI is not connected to the business strategy or culture of continuous learning in an organization.

    • How can we stop missing opportunities?
    • How can individuals and organizations reach their full potential?

    Join me and my special guest, Dr. Theoria M. Cason as we discuss these challenges, the root cause, and a path forward.

    Taking a serious approach to cultivating a strategy, with measurable goals is fundamental to DEI. Learning and Development is part of this intentional and holistic approach.

    Dr. Cason, is a fellow Cornellian and Inclusive Leaders Group Senior Consultant. She is a talented Certified Diversity Professional, Transformational Coach, Global Citizen, Author, Speaker, and Strategic Disrupter.

    Taking the next step from unconscious bias awareness to a strategic DEI plan is essential. Evolving from a fixed mindset to a growth mindset is a culture shift that takes time and yields results.

    A commitment to continuous learning increases your knowledge, supports every employee's ability to contribute to actionable strategies to solve problems and maximize potential!

    Effectively communicating with people from different cultures, can be the difference between success and failure in business, healthcare, education, and beyond.
