441: Journey Towards Diversity and Inclusion, with Willie Jackson

441: Journey Towards Diversity and Inclusion, with Willie Jackson

Willie Jackson

Willie Jackson is a diversity, equity, and inclusion consultant and facilitator with ReadySet, a boutique consulting firm based in the San Francisco Bay Area. He is a frequent writer and speaker on the topics of workplace equity, global diversity, and inclusive leadership.

Willie founded an online magazine for black men called Abernathy in 2015, growing the publication from initial concept to over 400 articles and thousands of subscribers. He also served as Technical Lead of Seth Godin’s altMBA program.

In this conversation, Willie and I discuss getting started on the journey with diversity and inclusion, what leaders can do to be more mindful, and some of the missteps that I’ve made along the way.

Key Points
  • Most of us have good intentions — and intentions alone do not ensure we make the impact we want.
  • We don’t rise to the level of our ambition. We sink to the level of our training.
  • You will make mistakes, regardless of how mindful and intentional you are.
