With D&I having emerged as a top priority for law
departments, understanding how best to have confronting
interactions will be critical in ensuring legal teams can
meaningfully move forward.
On this episode of The Corporate Counsel Show, host Jerome
Doraisamy is joined by Collective Wellness Group legal counsel
Darshana Parekh who says there is a need to have conversations that
are “not fun and not comfortable”, for the reason that they allow
us to better appreciate and respect the many differences that
people bring to a workplace.
The pair also delve into the need or otherwise for defined
structures to facilitate such conversations, how such engagement
can be engineered in the “new normal” in which workforces will be
more scattered, and the role of leaders to create a more naturally
evolving inclusive workplace.
