Podcast Episode #97: "Taking Swift Action to Elicit Real Change" - an Interview with Denise Reed Lamoreaux
Taking Swift Action to Elicit Real Change
In case you missed my LIVE interview with the amazing Denise Reed Lamoreaux (Chief Diversity Officer at ATOS), here are a few of the wisdom gems she shared:

- Be specific in your word choice by saying, “Friday is the deadline”, rather than, “I need it ASAP”
- Provide people with resources after a meeting to go back to, this helps with retaining information

- If you want to be known as a role model, you have to be bold, take that next step in action
- Communicate with power. Every time you remain silent, that means that this situation could happen again.
