Walking the Talk: How to Have Productive Conversations About Identity, Race, and Allyship at Work with Stephanie Creary

The deaths of George Floyd, Ahmaud Arbery, and Breonna Taylor, and the #BlackLivesMatter protests that have erupted across our country have fueled a national conversation around racism and structural inequality, with calls for change in policing and the criminal justice system and in our communities and workplaces. In this episode, Wharton Professor and identity and diversity expert Stephanie Creary joins Laura to share practical advice for productively talking about race and advancing allyship at work - including the role of leadership in changing culture and establishing new norms, tips managers can use to translate their organizations’ aspirational D&I statements into concrete actions, and Professor Creary’s frameworks for engaging in difficult conversations across difference to educating ourselves and others. Originally aired with Host Laura Zarrow on June 18, 2020 on SiriusXM's Business Radio Powered by The Wharton School, Channel 132.
