As you might know, I serve as the CDO at a smaller subsidiary of a global conglomerate. Our weekly C-level meetings are typically a smorgasbord of business deliberations, decisions, and the occasional project handed down from our corporate overlords.
This week, though, I had been particularly eager for the meeting, thanks to an intriguing agenda item from HR: the launch of a new DEI initiative. DEI, for those unfamiliar, stands for diversity, equity, and inclusion.
