Dive In: A Podcast for Career Development Professionals


Jan 4, 2021

You’ve got questions and we’ve got answers.  In this episode, Joelle Murchison, founder and principal of ExecMommyGroup, joins me for a conversation to address diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) questions related to our work as career development professionals and higher education practitioners.  She shares her journey as a diversity champion in higher education, a non-profit, a corporation, and now as an entrepreneur.  She explains the differences in DEI work in higher education and the corporate sector, describes how she integrates DEI into a course she teaches, discusses strategies clients can use to determine a company's commitment to DEI, and identifies areas for career centers to consider as they develop their DEI strategy.
