Thinkers50 Radar featuring Mita Mallick
Busting DEI Myths
DEI leader and transformation expert, Mita Mallick has had an extensive career as a multicultural marketer in the beauty and consumer goods space, being a fierce advocate for including and representing Black and Brown communities. She is co-host of the Brown Table Talk podcast, a LinkedIn Top Voice, and a contributor to the Harvard Business Review, Adweek, Entrepreneur, and Fast Company.
An award-winning storyteller, in her new book, Reimagine Inclusion, Mita deconstructs 13 myths about diversity, equity, and inclusion which she says, holds people back from transforming their workplaces. To effect change in an organisation, she argues, a leader needs to practise inclusion, which means they need to confront, understand, and mitigate their own biases.
