Leading organizational EDI efforts requires a nuanced understanding of EDI, balancing the organization’s needs as you navigate various dynamics, identities, and perspectives. Organizations must consider organizational and individual capacity before embarking on the EDI journey to create a workplace of equity, diversity, and belonging that is sustainable in the long term.
