His work calls for a lot of listening and attention to diversity, equity, and inclusion (DE&I). For public health and social impact work, DE&I have always been valued. The problem for many organizations is that those values are espoused rather than actually lived, and part of the reason for this lies in the definitions used for what makes us unique (diversity) and what makes us feel welcome (inclusion). We are different based on gender, race, ethnicity, and sexual identity, and also based on our backgrounds, experiences, education, etc. and how these factors integrate with our identified gender, race etc. One the personal side, Will and I will talk about privilege, blindness, and comfort.

In her role she has to keep her finger on the pulse of not only her business, but the business of her clients and the people they serve, all through the lens of policy.
