Back in episode 279 of this podcast (February 1, 2022: ‘Why work is the ideal place to talk about race’), we spoke with authors Margaret Greenberg and Gina Greenlee about their book The Business of Race. But while we talked extensively about personal experiences and inner work, we didn’t have a chance to dig into what L&D can do to promote an anti-racist workplace. So this week on The Mind Tools L&D Podcast, Margaret and Gina are back with Ross G and Nahdia to discuss: The pre-work required for organizational change The extent to which diversity training is effective Tools that can help L&D promote an anti-racist workplace.
