Creating Systemic Change in DEI with Roxanne Derhodge and Phyllis Reid-Jarvis

DEI Quote: “If the playing field is indeed level, then we’ll all have an equal, truly equal opportunity.” Phyllis Reid-Jarvis

Diversity, Equity and Inclusion or DEI…

Words that we’re all hearing but are we truly seeing a change in society? The past week has seen yet another mass shooting in the headlines that was enveloped in hate. What needs to happen before we start to see some real change? On this episode of Authentic Living with Roxanne, we welcome Phyllis Reid-Jarvis to have a very timely and necessary conversation on how we can create the changes that are so clearly needed in the world. 

Phyllis is an experienced international executive coach who works with organizations and individuals to realize their full potential. With a focus on employee and organizational success, she helps businesses sharpen their skills by coaching them on operationalizing what they have learned in training.
