Nearly a year ago, “Perspectives” began a conversation on “Equitable Education” and today we want to continue the conversation. For this podcast, let’s use the working definition for “Equitable Education” as ‘the pursuit of creating an educational system that caters to students of all kinds and develops their educational experience accordingly.’ This means that no matter what a student’s background, language, race, economic profile, gender, learning capability, disability or family history, each student has the opportunity to get the support and resources they need to achieve their educational goals. With that in mind, are all school systems treated equally? Join Essence Learning CEO, Valerie Wilson, as she sits with DE+I leaders and professional educators to gain their perspective of America as an equitable classroom.

The pandemic caused countless businesses to reinvent themselves at a speed once thought impossible. Retailers launched curbside delivery in two days instead of the planned 18 months, and engineering companies designed and manufactured ventilators at a record pace.

Essence Learning CEO, Valerie Wilson welcomes Principal Leadership Consultant, M. Elizabeth Holmes, Global DEI Leader, Ruben Gonzales, and Chief Solutions Officer and DEI Expert, April Thomas to the table to discuss the evolution of Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion in the workplace.
As some of the world’s leaders in DEI, the panelist will explore the roots of diversity, founded in the 1960s civil rights movement, and journey through its most recent historic advancements. This episode is designed to educate listeners and inspire leaders to continue to move the DEI journey rapidly forward for generations to come.
In Essence Learning’s June 2022 issue of the Perspective newsletter, our featured article “America Is Now Hiring: What Works In 2022”, starts by stating “In his 2022 State of the Union Address, President Joe Biden declared that “it’s time for Americans to get back to work”.
With a record number of 47.4 million Americans quitting their jobs in 2021 amid the ongoing “Great Resignation,” employers are now flexing their flexibility muscles in order to stay competitive and retain talent. Attempting to dim the bright “Now Hiring” sign, employers are investing more in their employees by offering robust benefits packages, greater signing bonuses, 401(k) matches, and remote work flexibility. Even with these favorable incentives, Fortune Magazine still reports that nearly 50% of small business owners have job openings that can't be filled, and some 93% of those trying to hire report few or no qualified applicants for their open positions. So, what works in 2022?” In this 30-minute learning experience, we will explore various ways leaders are investing in their employees. The panel of HR and recruitment experts will share what qualified employees are pursuing in today’s workforce so organizational leaders can not only attract them but retain them by investing in them properly.

Women currently make up the majority of the workforce at 52%. However, according to McKinsey & Company, for every 100 men promoted to a managerial role, only 85 women advanced to the same position. This gap was even larger for women of color as only 71 Latinas and 50 Black women received a promotion. Consequently, women remain underrepresented at the managerial level holding just 30% of manager positions, while men account for 62%. Join Kanetra Hights as she explores this ongoing gender and racial gap with CEOs Abigal Moore, Ivette Mayo, and Valerie Wilson.
