The DEI Breakdown
<p>Diversity, equity, inclusion, D&I, DIB, JEDI. In the Season One finale of Work the Unworkable pod, Elle and Jay reflect on workplace diversity initiatives in the context of the COVID-19 pandemic and the latest global racial reckoning. While companies and organizations co-opt DEI lingo, Elle and Jay wonder if it’s just another (JEDI) mind trick! Major themes of this discussion include: your company’s (failed) attempt at creating an inclusive work environment and new acronyms to use in your next Zoom meeting.</p><p>Acronyms defined:</p><ul><li><p>D&I = Diversity & Inclusion</p></li><li><p>DIB = Diversity, Inclusion, and Belonging</p></li><li><p>JEDI = Justice, Equity, Diversity, and Inclusion</p></li><li><p>DEI = Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion</p></li></ul>

<p>In this week’s episode, DishELLEveled (get it? Elle? Disheveled? Meh.) and Jay (of the jumbled mind) reflect on negative self-talk and the stories they’ve told to and about themselves in moments of doubt. Major themes of this discussion include fifty different ways to call yourself “a mess” and why doing so is categorically counterproductive, especially when it comes to climbing the corporate ladder.</p>
