Protégé Podcast With Rory Verrett

In the second episode in our Protégé Podcast series on D&I in the Workplace, I talk with Joanna Lane, the Vice President for Talent Engagement and Inclusion at Publicis Groupe, the world's third largest advertising and communications group. Joanna and I talk about the evolution of the diversity function and why consumer goods companies like Nivea, Dove, and others keep making culturally insensitive advertisements. We also discuss the unique perspective she brings as a Caucasian woman to the diversity function. On the Rant/Rave/Review segment, I rave about companies which have their chief diversity officers reporting into the CEO.
