Welcome to episode #753 of Six Pixels of Separation.

Here it is: Six Pixels of Separation – Episode #753 – Host: Mitch Joel. Dr. Stefanie K. Johnson is an author, professor, and speaker who studies the intersection of leadership and diversity. She is focused on how unconscious bias affects the evaluation of leaders, and strategies that leaders can use to mitigate bias. If I’ve learned anything in the past little while, it’s that unconscious bias affects all of us. Her recently-published book, Inclusify – Harnessing the power of uniqueness and belonging to build innovative teams, shares the surprising ways the leaders undermine inclusion and provides actionable ways that leaders can pivot to build more inclusive teams.
