Are Diversity, Equity, & Inclusion Employee Ownership Values?
Diversity, Equity and Inclusion (DEI) is something we hear a lot about, but what exactly do these terms mean, and what do they look like in an employee owned company? In this episode we sit down with Dr. Joy and Ty Miller of Carver & Associates to talk about some of the preconceived notions that surround DEI, ways in which these values can be put into practice, and what first steps individuals in both managerial and non-managerial roles can take to begin to learn more about DEI. One of the overarching themes of the conversation is that, much like models of employee ownership, efforts to improve diversity, equity and inclusion in your organization can help create a culture of accountability that improves individual's well-being and company performance. We want to hear from you, and tell your employee ownership story!! Send an email to the OEOC at oeoc@kent.edu Chris Cooper ccooper1@kent.edu or Mike Palmieri mpalmie2@kent.edu.
