J.E.D.I. Leadership Principles

MBE Magazine Staff

A guide to navigate social issues and foster inclusive environments

Omar L. Harris is a standout figure, carving a niche with his forward-thinking and commitment to J.E.D.I—Justice, Equity, Diversity, and Inclusion—principles. His acute critique of the traditional approach to DEI (Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion) within HR functions offers a groundbreaking perspective reshaping how organizations perceive and implement these initiatives.

He sat down with MBE magazine to tell us more about diversity, equity, and inclusion. In addition, he also tells us more about “The J.E.D.I. Leader’s Playbook” and his upcoming International Tour.

The J.E.D.I. Leader’s Playbook is a comprehensive and strategic guide tailored for business leaders aiming to navigate the complex landscape of social issues and foster inclusive environments within their organizations.

Excerpts of our conversation are below. You can listen to the full Diversity Discourse podcast episode here.
