In this episode of Your DEI Minute™, Michelle Bogan, founder and CEO of Equity at Work™, discusses the fundamental components of DEI—Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion—in the workplace. Michelle breaks down each element, starting with the broad and nuanced concept of diversity, which encompasses not just race, gender, and sexual orientation but also age, ethnicity, disability status, communication styles, and more. She highlights how diversity can change depending on the setting and emphasizes the importance of understanding these variations to foster a truly inclusive environment. Moving on to equity, Michelle clarifies the often-confused terms of equity and equality.
