Episode 11, Part 2: DEI, from an Employer Perspective
Monday, 15 November, 2021
On this episode, we’ll be continuing our conversation on diversity, equity, and inclusion in the workplace. After speaking with students on the last episode about how DEI initiatives helped shape their internship experiences this past summer, I wanted to get an employers point of view. So, on this episode, I’m joined by two representatives from PPL, an electric utility company based in Allentown. Joining me was Brian Case, Manager of Corporate Talent Management and Diversity, and Monica Brooks, Manager of Diversity and inclusion. We talked about the history of DEI initiatives at PPL, the new initiatives that are currently being rolled out, the response to these initiatives, and how they help to shape the PPL culture. It was a very insightful conversation that I hope you’ll enjoy.
