This episode features special guest Brian Yeager, President of Barefoot Media Ministries. Brian and Dennis discuss the topic of race in the workplace, providing leaders with tools and thoughtful tips on how to create an environment of listening. Brian pulls from his personal life, sharing how his biracial wife and children have given him a new lens through which to view white privilege, racial reconciliation, and blindspots white people often have regarding people of color.
How can you facilitate listening and openness regarding race in the workplace? Brian recommends creating feedback loops, methods of conversation, and moments where your team can sit and talk. Deeply entrenched core values in your company, like respect and care for others, help make workplaces inviting and welcoming for everyone.
