About the Podcast

Inclusion On Demand Podcast
In the Inclusion on Demand Podcast, we’ll explore the world of diversity, equity, inclusion, and belonging - called DEIB for short - through the lens of best practices host Brian Fishbone has developed over more than a decade in this field.  We’ll discuss everything from inclusive leadership and psychological safety to bias mitigation in HR practices and building sustainable, enduring Employee Resource Groups (ERGs for short). We’ll feature interviews with leading inclusion experts and practitioners.  And we’ll analyze what’s hot, and what’s not, in the world of DEIB.  The goal of the podcast is to equip you with powerful insights, diverse perspectives, and easy-to-implement best practices that anyone interested in DEIB can use.
