12:06Diversity and the White Male

Guest host: Matthew Felling

Historically, the reigns of power in the halls of government and the corporate board room have been held by a small sub-set of the population: white men. But today's public and private leaders have promoted "diversity" in the workplace. We talk with Howard Ross about race and gender privilege, and a new survey of white male thoughts on diversity issues.

Guests

Howard Ross, Diversity consultant; Principal, Cook Ross

Michael Leslie Dejan, Senior Director of Business Development, Diversity Best Practices
