Priya Klocek moved to Cincinnati from India as a 20-year-old, so she is no stranger to managing change. Now she works with leaders of businesses and organizations to help with change management and DEI issues – diversity, equity, and inclusion. She brings a refreshingly “real world” perspective to how we view and are viewed differently, and how to navigate the challenges that come with that on both a personal and organizational level.
2:21 – on DEI and what businesses are struggling with “People want quick fixes, let’s just bring in people that look different from us… they don’t realize they have to change their practices.”
5:16 – “People struggle with DEI, understanding it thru a lens other than their own… I personally struggled with it as well…my wife is from Mexico City, I’m from Germany, we both immigrated to the US, and our experiences immigrating were very different, largely based on different skin tones.”
10:42 – “Leaders want to talk about change, they want change, what they often don’t want is to invest the time to change themselves.”
Always growing.
