Mickey Unionizes, Wisconsin Constitutionalizes, and Dr. Fadia Nordtveit

Dr. Fadia Nordtveit joins Inclusive Collective to talk about the link between sustainability and DEIB, how to align DEIB across functions as you develop you business model, and why she leans on data to drive change. Also, Nadia and Rob discuss Disney characters' efforts to unionize (and Rob gives a review of Goofy's Kitchen at Disneyland) and Wisconsin Republicans' constitutional amendment limiting DEI in government. Later, Nadia rants about the Valentine's Day ride-share strike and Rob raves about Princeton's president's defense of diversity on campus.
