IIP071 Why Mental Health Matters in DEI - a podcast by Kay Fabella

#071 - In this episode, Kay Fabella is pleased to welcome Cornell Verdeja-Woodson, DEI Director at Headspace and the Founder of Brave Trainings, LLC,  to discuss why employee mental health matters in DEI.

Cornell dives into the often elusive topic of mental health at the workplace, and the cultural connection between employee mental health and DEI. He also reiterates the importance of embedding diversity and inclusion across organizational functions in design, and shares the work he is leading at Headspace and in his ongoing research.

Finally, Cornell and Kay discuss ways through which organizational leaders can move away from reactionary actions to giving consistent attention to psychological safety, especially for historically marginalized populations at work.
