How to Build a More Inclusive Workplace
Mita Mallick, head of inclusion, equity, and impact at the technology company Carta, is a big believer in the power of many. Specifically, bringing leaders together with different cultural backgrounds and different points of view and life experiences. It's the surest way, she says, for an organization to authentically and purposefully serve customers and communities.
If only it were so easy.
Transforming a workplace to improve inclusivity at every level can be a challenging endeavor, but it's one that the most purposeful companies have made a priority. And it's helping them build a culture where employees can thrive.
In her new book Reimagine Inclusion, Mita debunks 13 myths that hold companies back from transforming their workplaces. Through powerful storytelling, she offers practical and effective strategies for building more inclusive, empathetic, and resilient organizations, and explains the ripple effect that can have on systems, processes, and policies.
In this episode of Beyond Profit, Mita joins host Ken Beaulieu to discuss key learnings from her book, why unconscious bias holds companies back, the rise in DEI backlash, and more.
