Description:

Nicole, Oneka and Kendra, all co-founders of HR vs. Racism joined me on this heart-felt episode that’s near and dear to my heart. We talk about the community they built to help create safe spaces for processing the complex topic of racism through the 3 C framework - Building Competence, Confidence and Courage. We explore the HR vs Racism origin story and how the team has created a platform for healing, unpacking and, most importantly, driving anti-racism action and change.

Here’s what you’ll learn about in this episode:

• More about the HR vs. Racism origin story and how this brilliant team worked to create a space for HR professionals to come together, learn from each other and come up with anti-racism action.
• The pivotal element of community and combatting shame and guilt to drive understanding and action around JEDI +B (Justice, Equity, Diversity, Inclusion and Belonging) issues in the workplace.
• A call to action around the competencies needed for current and future HR professionals and Executives to confidently and courageously challenge traditional systems or ecosystems that have bias or elements of exclusivity.
• The acknowledgement that JEDI + B is not an HR issue - it’s a fundamental culture change issue that requires long-term commitment and focused time, attention and centralization.
• When HR is at risk of being the problem versus the solution.
