My guest this week is Tamara Makoni, Founder and CEO of Kazuri Consulting. In this episode, she discusses how:

Equality and equity are different – and why equity is more important for creating fair outcomes
Discrimination often emerges unconsciously, for example through “micro-aggressions”
Diversity and inclusion require investment of time and resources in order to make progress
DE&I creates value for organisations and society, but this is not often quantified
We need to learn the lessons of the salmon in order to confront social injustice
