115: Lenora Billings-Harris - Why Diversity & Inclusion is not "Political"

Lenora Billings-Harris has been leading diversity and inclusion work across the world for 25+ years. She shares her personal "why" story for this work dating back to 1994 in South Africa that builds the so important human case for diversity.

Together, we discuss

• Why diversity & inclusion is unfairly perceived as "political" and therefore hard to talk about
• Her B-BASIC techniques for allyship
• What it means to be an ally vs. an advocate
• D&I as a team metaphor - diversity is the make-up of the team and inclusion is how the team behaves
