Although some companies have been cutting back on their DEI efforts lately, Mita Mallick, the Head of Inclusion, Equity, and Impact at financial software company Carta, says, “Now's not the time to put DEI on the back burner. There's a business case for creating an inclusive workplace and fostering a culture of belonging. Right now, in the US, 40% of individuals identify as non-white. That number is rapidly changing. That doesn't include individuals with disabilities, veterans, the LGBTQ+ community, and others. If you don't have those voices and talent in your organization I don't know how you expect to stay competitively successful.” Highlights [2:32] The challenges and opportunities facing DEI efforts in the workplace [8:35] Why does inclusion matter?

Underrepresented groups face endless systemic barriers in the job search, workplace and beyond. Where do those obstacles come from? A lot of them emerge from myths perpetuated throughout the world of work. For example, people may say they're for diverse talent — as long as they're good. Or, they support women because they provide maternity leave.  Mita Mallick, who is LinkedIn Top Voice and inclusion champion, is out with a new bestselling book busting those myths and more to help transform workplaces. The book is Reimagine Inclusion: Debunking 13 Myths To Transform Your Workplace. Mita, who is also the co-host of the podcast Brown Table Talk, chatted about the book and what she hopes people will take away from it with LinkedIn News Early Career Development Editor Gianna Prudente on the latest episode of Get Hired. The two also discuss how to combat common misconceptions to ensure allyship happens both in the workplace and behind closed doors.  This episode is for anyone who wants to make sure they're creating a space of real and impactful diversity and inclusion for their coworkers.
