Ingrid Harb, Founder of NOTA Inclusion, and I recap the latest 5 Things (good vibes in DEI) in just 15 minutes. This week our conversation is about non-gendered uniform policies, salary transparency laws, and more!

Episode Notes

We are in National Hispanic Heritage Month and I’d like to recommend some Latine folks for you to follow and/or hire all year long. Ingrid Harb is my guest on 5 Things in 15 Minutes this week. She’s a fabulous, connective speaker who also leads transformative in-person DEI experiences. You can follow Ingrid here and catch her on my podcast this week.

My friend, speaker Miguel Aviles-Perez is based in Puerto Rico, which remains in crisis once again due to the devastation of Hurricane Fiona. Much of the island still lacks power. Miguel is thoughtful and insightful and his energy is amazing! You can follow Miguel here.

Finally, we have a new team member here at Equality Institute, Erika Latines, who is a compelling and engaging facilitator and storyteller. You can read more about Erika here. She’s available for our new workshops True Colors and Just the Way You Are, as well as our bestseller, Voices Carry.

And if you’re looking for a great novel, I highly recommend the NYT bestseller Olga Dies Dreaming written by my old friend Xochitl Gonzalez. It’s a juicy novel set in NYC and Puerto Rico. I loved it.

Here are the good vibes I found this week:

  1. Virgin Atlantic Announces Non-Gendered Uniform Policy
  2. Amazon, Hilton, and PepsiCo Among Nearly Four Dozen Major Companies That Commit To Hiring 22,000 Refugees
  3. Activision Blizzard launched a boot camp for industry outsiders
  4. California Job Postings Will Soon Include Pay Ranges Due to a New Salary Transparency Bill Signed Into Law
  5. First Neurodiversity-Focused Chamber of Commerce Launches in Colorado
