Embracing Innovation w/ Donna Hicks-Mitchell, Corporate Discovery Strategist, Speaker & Exec. Coach [Video]

🔔 Subscribe: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCUsO9Bj1OiznxuN2anNqy-A?sub_confirmation=1 About this episode: ​​In this episode of Reimagining Company Culture, we’re chatting with Donna Hicks-Mitchell, Corporate Discovery Strategist, Speaker, Author & Executive Coach for Leaders. Donna is a global diversity and inclusion leader focused on helping organizations maximize and retain diverse talent. Tune in to learn Donna’s thoughts on making the onboarding process more equitable, operationalizing equity-driven leadership, the impact of employee trust, and more!About AllVoicesTo learn more about AllVoices visit us at https://www.allvoices.coIn today’s workforce, people often don’t feel empowered to speak up and voice their opinions about workplace issues, including harassment, bias, and other culture issues. This prevents company leadership from making necessary changes, and prevents people from feeling fulfilled, recognized, and included at work. At AllVoices, we want to change that by providing a completely safe, anonymous way for people to report issues directly to company leaders. This allows company leadership real transparency into what’s happening in their companies—and the motivation to address issues quickly. Our goal is to help create safer, more inclusive companies.🔗 For more updates, follow us on Linkedin: https://www.linkedin.com/company/allvoicesco/
