Various Thoughts From Dennis Shaw

I am going to change the routine a little bit and start posting on Sunday afternoons.  This Podcast will be published on July 14th (Bastille Day!)   Our topic is Diversity, Equity and Inclusion -- often shortened to the initials DEI. My guest is Cody Nielsen.  Cody's Bio is HERE.  I was made familiar with Cody's work through Hilltop UMC (Sandy, Utah) lay person, Bob Scarborough (and Bob's LinkedIn page is HERE.).  I am mindful that some hear the topic of Diversity, Equity and Inclusion (DEI) and might (I did say some!) push away and not listen.  Please don't!  I strongly encourage a mindful listen here.  Cody does a great job of framing some thoughts on DEI that are ways to be mindful in your leadership.     More information is available on Convergence Strategies HERE.   I do have a few outtakes at the end.  Provided for amusement and/or information.  Will start doing that ....
