Brené with Ruchika Tulshyan on Inclusion on Purpose

Hi, everyone. I'm Brene Brown, and this is Dare to Lead. Oh, man. I have such a beautiful conversation for you today. I am talking to the very singular, Rachika Tulshyan. She is an award winning inclusion strategist and speaker. She's the founder of Candor, which is an inclusion strategy practice. And we're talking about her new book, which, oh my god, I love, Inclusion on Purpose, an intersectional approach to creating a culture of belonging at work. You know why I love it? It's so actionable. It's so tactical. It's practical. And so often, we talk about organizational behavior change or we talk about individual behavior change. But Rachika does something that is so powerful. She talks about both. She talks about what can I do, and then what systems can we build within the organization, and how we will never have systems that can change our culture in terms of belonging and representation and inclusion and equity if we don't have people who've got power and privilege within organizations making individual transformations? And I love this conversation. She's just one of my favorite people to talk to. So I'm glad you're here. It's an important conversation, and I'm just I'm grateful for it.
