Fortune’s Ellen McGirt Joins the Better™ Podcast to Discuss Race and Diversity & Inclusion in Corporate America

OAKLAND, Calif.–(BUSINESS WIRE)–#GPTWCertified–Great Place to Work®, the global authority on high trust workplace culture, recently unveiled Better, a new podcast series of interviews with some of the best leaders in business.


In the latest episode, Ellen McGirt, a Senior Editor at Fortune who writes the daily RaceAhead column, says that 2019’s Black History Month was a complete disaster. An expert on Diversity & Inclusion, McGirt says that race is still a misunderstood issue and that diversity continues to be a problematic debate in American politics and business. She shares how some companies are winning at D&I and gives examples of those that still have a long way to go.

Each episode of Better offers tips, strategy, and advice from executives at Great Place to Work-Certified companies that make their workplace culture a top priority, because they know it’s ultimately better for their people, better for business, and better for the world.

The first season of Better was recorded during the 2019 Great Place to Work For All Summit in San Francisco. Podcast episodes can be found on Apple iTunes, Google Play, Spotify, Stitcher, and TuneIn, as well as Great Place to Work’s website.
