John Amaechi & Alicia Menendez: Making Work More Inclusive | 2022 Wharton Future of Work Conference

“From Intent to Impact: How Can We Create A More Inclusive Future?”

In this personal and profound conversation with Alicia Menendez, John Amaechi moves past the question of why DEI matters to helping us all develop the skills that are essential to creating and sustaining inclusion, especially in the context of remote work. Together, John and Alicia explore why calls for authenticity may ironically make it harder for some people to bring their whole selves to work, and discuss how to push through the initial discomfort of becoming an effective ally.

Speakers:
John Amaechi, Organizational psychologist, Founder of APS Intelligence, former NBA player
Alicia Menendez, Anchor and Correspondent at MSNBC
