Inspired by her long career as a scholar, teacher and champion for diversity, equity and inclusion, Tuck Professor Ella Bell Smith is in conversation with the most fascinating thinkers and problem solvers that she knows on a wide range of topics, all centered on a single mission: How do we make our workplaces truly inclusive? Ella and her guests have real talk about what’s holding us back, always with a focus on practical, research-backed solutions that help everyone thrive at work.
In this episode, we discuss how to lead diverse organizations with the mindset of a co-conspirator. Ella is joined by her friend Mary Kay Henry, president of the Service Employees International Union (SEIU) and the first woman to lead the two-million-member organization. Ella and Mary Kay go deep into Mary Kay’s unique leadership journey, and how important it is to be a “multilingual” leader.
