The Unbearable Lightness of Being

Historically DEI has been an add on to HR and people management roles, however, post COVID that has changed and we are seeing more defined roles with clear roles and responsibilities. The path to working in the DEI space can vary significantly, I know plenty of people who entered the space through recruiting, HR, L&D, psychologist, etc. I came in through with my creative identity and commercial experience and simply wanted to make a transition into the DEI space. I think it’s important to identify your existing transferable skills and then work on strengthening the others you don’t have. What do you think?
