Can we learn something about diversity from Star Wars? And why is the Jedi training of Luke Skywalker a great example when thinking about equity? Diversity is on top of every management agenda. It's quite interesting to see how this topic evolved from a pure human resources task - or human resources sourcing task - to a very big strategic pillar of every company. In this podcast episode I would like to share with you my learnings and experiences from my project work on the topic of diversity. Feel free to use it with a pick'n'mix approach: Just select the ideas and learnings which might suit your company and apply them. We will cover: What we can learn from Star Wars Why diversity is relevant & important for your company Which dimensions are summarised under diversity/DEIBJ Is there something like "the one golden" approach for a diversity strategy? Why it's recommended from my side to apply the the approach of equity rather than equality Four steps to kick-start a diversity strategy in your company, including proposals for quick measures The use & importance of KPIs

Star Wars: it's more than a cultural phenomenon. It's the retelling of ancient myths in a new and profound way. For a majority of nerds and geeks, it's often what made us realize that we were nerds. Raise your hand if you ever picked up a broomstick, a mop handle, anything that resembled a sword, and imagined it was a lightsaber. I did it. And I know you did, too. Star Wars, for me, is sacred. The stories it tells, the images it provokes, the characters in that world all provide meaning and lessons during the toughest times of my life. After Revenge of the Sith, I thought that was it. No more Star Wars. But now with Disney at the helm, we have a whole new set of stories that are opening up to us as fans. With the release of Rogue One this week, I wanted to change up coaches corner and turn it into a giant geek out on Star Wars. I'm not all fitness all the time. And this episode is a whole lot of fun. In this episode we discuss: Darth Vader The first time we saw or were introduced to Star Wars The pronunciation of the Millennium Falcon Lightsaber duels and fights with our kids Our favorite characters The first two Clone Wars cartoons Why Alec Guinness hated Star Wars Why Empire is the better film (no matter what I think) Where else in our lives we see or connect to Star Wars Fanboys Thoughts on Episode 7 What director we’d like to see take a Star Wars film What scene you think of when you think of Star Wars Order 66 The problem of Anakin becoming Vader What age is the appropriate age to show a kid Star Wars Why the Extended Universe is still canon to me Frank McGuire artwork Weird Star Wars Episode 8 theories Reign of Fire Bothan Spies Darth Maul fan film Topher Grace Star Wars film Red Letter Media Lightsaber battle in welding shop Steve Snoke Favorite Star Wars video game
