You Are Not Crazy: A Conversation about Diversity, Equity and Inclusion in the Workplace (w. Erica Edwards O’Neal)

Oby Chiapa • March 21, 2021

On the podcast this week, it is my honor to chat with one of my mentors and favorite humans, Erica Edwards O'Neal. Erica is the founder and Principal of EEO consults, helping organizations develop more equitable, diverse, and inclusive workplaces.

Erica is a Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion Leader. She is also a Strategist, speaker, Consultant, and Attorney. She is an advocate committed to developing policies and programs to attract, retain and foster a diverse and inclusive workforce.

In this episode, she not only shares her experience and how she came to be a DEI thought leader and expert, but she also provides the uncensored truth about what diversity, equity, and inclusion is and is not. 

If you have ever felt "some type of way" because of experiences you faced at the workplace due to your race, gender, religion, or sexual orientation, YOU ARE NOT CRAZY, and this conversation is for you. ENJOY.
