SUMMARY
On this month's episode of Tackle Tuesday, I invited professional speaker Jeff A.D. Martin onto the show to talk about diversity, equity, and inclusion in the workplace.
Jeff is familiar with loss and hardship due to the tragic death of his cousin Omar, who was killed in 2005. Today, he is a community advocate who provides programs on self-worth, leadership, diversity, and inclusion.
Jeff and I discussed how you can foster an inclusive atmosphere in the workplace, beginning with active listening and empathy.
