Navigating the Changing DEI Landscape

Listen | Watch | Read the Transcript

Diversity, Equity and Inclusion (DEI) initiatives have been declining nationwide over the last few years. But the values of those initiatives are vital to business and overall community success. As Central New York grows and we strive to create a region where all people can prosper, it’s become even more important to prioritize DEI work and create an inclusive economy.

On this episode of Talk CNY, presented by NBT Bank, CenterState CEO’s Senior Vice President of Racial Equity and Social Impact (RESI) Dr. Juhanna Rogers discusses the evolving DEI landscape and why equity work is an important pillar of a sustainable, robust local economy.
