About the Podcast

Welcome to The Inclusive Enterprise Conversations Podcast where we host bimonthly discussions with leading DEI practitioners, inclusive workplace leaders, and innovators advancing equity, inclusion, and belonging for everyone. Our discussions empower listeners to help their organizations become inclusive enterprises by gaining DEI knowledge, trends, and best practices. All evidence proves that organizations focused on building a more inclusive culture attract and retain a wider diversity of talent. An inclusive culture empowers talent to think differently and share their experiences and perspectives, which is a key driver for engagement, collaboration, innovation, and profitable growth. An inclusive enterprise is an Employer of Choice – an employer that candidates and employees, want to work for and deliver their best for their organization!

Meet Your Host Charlotte

Recognized as the “Pragmatic Diversity Strategist”, Charlotte Hughes CDPⓇ has spent over 20 years empowering talent, leaders, and organizations to make DEI practical. Charlotte believes in creating a holistic DEI strategy focusing on all aspects of diversity, not just one or two. There are many ways to define what a diversity candidate or employee are race and gender are the most talked about, but there are many other lenses through which to look at the diversity of your pipeline and workforce.

DEI strategy should be embedded or aligned with the overall business strategy, a belief that is the mission of Charlotte’s consulting firm, Inclusive Leaders Group.

As a leading DEI authority, author, and inclusive leadership catalyst, Charlotte and Inclusive Leaders Group were recognized by MANAGEHR Magazine as a Top 10 Emerging DEI Company in 2022. Charlotte is a unique and exceptional speaker with the gift of making people feel safe and comfortable with topics that can be challenging to discuss openly. Her keynotes, talks, and podcast conversations are blended with enthusiasm, empathy, expertise, and her lived experiences. Charlotte uses a story-telling style to create pragmatic “next steps” for audiences, resulting in transformational change.
