A Masterclass in DEI: Yes, Still Important More Than Ever
As we all know, 2024 has brought a wave of attacks against DEI. A handful of outspoken critics, such as Elon Musk, are misrepresenting DEI and attacking the strategies and practices that are creating more equitable and inclusive workplaces and delivering positive business results, as evidenced by numerous studies. We have written a few blogs about the attacks, and you can read them here.
Today, we are offering a way forward, through the turbulence, beyond and above the fray. Our aim is to empower you to not only engage in your DEI efforts but to take a leap into action with renewed vigor and determination!
We are proud to announce the launch of a new eLearning training program, DEI LEAP: Fostering Inclusion and Building Humanity with Lisette Martinez, the Chief Equity, Diversity, Inclusion and Belonging Officer at the National Audubon Society and one of SunShower’s distinguished experts. You can read more and even take the course for a Test Drive by filling out the form here.
DEI LEAP is a true masterclass, where Lisette invites you to get up close and personal as she shares her experiences, lessons learned and vision for what today’s employees and organizations need and want – to work in diverse and inclusive workplaces where people feel like they belong.
Through DEI LEAP, leaders and individual contributors gain actionable strategies to heighten bias awareness, enhance connections through storytelling, navigate challenges with grace and cultivate a stronger sense of belonging within their organizations.
About Lisette Martinez
As a fervent advocate for the transformative power of inclusion, Lisette has created award-winning DEI organizations and programs that operationalize DEI to align and support the company’s mission, vision and values. She was recognized as a Top Diversity Leader by Modern Healthcare and held the position of EVP and Chief DEI Officer at Jefferson Health, a 198-year-old legacy organization with 18 hospitals and 10 colleges with over 50,000 employees and students.
Then, in 2024, Lisette was appointed by the National Audubon Society to spearhead efforts across the organization, integrating equity, diversity, inclusion and belonging (EDIB) practices seamlessly into the fabric of Audubon’s operations. According to Lisette, the future of DEI revolves around ensuring that employees feel genuinely valued, engaged and included.
In DEI LEAP, she provides a wealth of techniques and skills accessible to all, aimed at fostering such a workplace environment. Hence, the course subtitle, “Fostering Inclusion and Building Humanity.”
