Hey there, Business of Marriage Family!

We have an exciting and thought-provoking episode just released on "The Business of Marriage Show." This time, we're diving deep into the hot-button topic of DEI (Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion) rollbacks and their far-reaching impact on communities, businesses, and the workplace.

Here are 5 key takeaways that you'll learn from this episode:

1. The Abrupt Rollback of DEI Efforts: Learn what major corporations like Meta are doing to dismantle their DEI programs and how new government policies are influencing these decisions.
2. The History and Evolution of DEI: Gain insights into how DEI initiatives have transformed from the 90s to now and what that means for today’s workplace.
3. Impact on Small Businesses: Understand how the elimination of supplier diversity programs affects minority-owned businesses and what small business owners can do moving forward.
4. Role of Diverse Leadership: We dive into why having diverse leaders is crucial for innovation and productivity in the workplace.
5. Future Implications: Discover the long-term consequences of these rollbacks on workplace culture and organizational innovation, and what companies like Apple and Microsoft are doing differently.

Did you know that the lovely Dr. Tammara Williams was sought out by a Microsoft recruiter directly at her HBCU, Xavier University of Louisiana? This proactive effort is a perfect example of how top companies have historically prioritized diversity and now stands in stark contrast to today’s rollbacks.

We believe that now, more than ever, it's critical to understand the landscape of DEI and its impacts on both personal and professional fronts. Whether you're a business owner, an employee, or simply someone keen on what's happening around you, this episode is a must-listen.
