In Support of DE&I
My guest this week is Renetta McCann, who is the Chief Inclusion Experiences Officer at Publicis Groupe, and the Principal of Renetta McCann, LLC. She has 4 decades of experience in the advertising industry, and was the CEO of Starcom MediaVest Group Worldwide. She joins me to discuss how diversity, equity, and inclusion (DE&I) intersects with business. Renetta shares her insights about the lack of proper management that DE&I was started with. HR is blamed for not solving the diversity, equity and inclusion issue, but that wasn’t HR’s job, Renetta posits. DE&I is an individual responsibility: everyone - at every level in an organization - is responsible for it.
