Synopsis

This week on Beyond Busy we are happy to e-meet Dr Robert Livingston, author of the book "The Conversation: How Seeking and Speaking the Truth about Racism Can Radically Transform Individuals and Organizations". Dr Robert Livingston is a social psychologist, based at the Harvard Kennedy School. He is one of the World's leading experts on science underlying bias and racism. In this episode, Graham talks with Robert about biases, what we can learn from the #blm movement, and what YOU can do in your workplace. In the first part, the guest talks about the reason he wrote a book.'My book is a tool so it's neither a thesis nor a testimonial. I wanted to write a book that would help move the needle on racial equity. So the purpose of my book was to provide a tool for managers, leaders, organisations that are interested in increasing the level of diversity, equity, and inclusion.'Robert tells us about his experience and his press model. Also, Robert explains why black people are really tired of educating white people
