Have you ever found yourself frustrated with corporate diversity, equity, and inclusion initiatives? I certainly have, and that's why I invited Zach Nunn to join us today. Zach, the founder, and CEO of Living Corporate, - a diversity, equity, and inclusion digital media network that centers and amplifies black and brown professionals in the workplace through narrative storytelling. Zach has been on quite the journey - from HR manager at Target to launching Living Corporate - and today, he's sharing that story with us.
I’ve been a fan of the podcasts, videos, blogs, and more that Zach and his team have been creating over the last five years. As an entrepreneur, I’ve also been fascinated by how something that began as an idea became a single podcast – then became a vibrant network of podcasts, web shows, blogs, and more – all while Zach was working full-time in leadership roles in HR, change management, DE&I, and strategy and growth for several large organizations.
Listen in as we explore the significance of authentic conversations and the impact that they can have in creating a more inclusive workplace. Plus, Zach will reveal some exciting new plans for his future, which include making Living Corporate his ONE job - instead of a second job. He talks about developing a learning platform using AI technology, providing organizational assessments, and launching the Living Corporate Collective - an online space for those passionate about workplace fairness to collaborate for systemic change.
Get ready to be inspired, challenged, and motivated to take action. Whether you're a people leader, a diversity advocate, or an aspirational ally, this episode will leave you better informed to make a positive impact in your own community by creating spaces where all voices are valued and can be shared and heard.
