From the Ted Talk by Rosalind G. Brewer: How to foster true diversity and inclusion at work (and in your community)

Unscramble the Blue Letters

RB: Sure. You know, a lot of this starts at home. It starts with what happens at your dennir table. Right? And so we can correct what happens and we're responsible for what happens when you come to work at sbcktruas, but we also rleaize that we can only get them ever so far, but if you're at the tlabe having some conversations that are counter to what you're learning in the wlrocpake, you can't help but slow down your growth and your change. And so a lot of the work that we do around diversity and inclusion is open-sourced. So when we created the materials for the work when we had the closing of our stores on May 28th, we had given that to so many other companies for them to use, and even we're doing some work right now around Courageous Conversations. And in this remote world, we're allowing our partners to bring their families onto the cmarea or listen in the room as we have courageous conversations on diversity. So if Starbucks has a keynote sakeper on a certain diversity toipc, we invite the famliy in. And it's been really, it's been great. A lot of our snoeir exuceievts have said, "This is starting new conversations with my teens at home," who are either getting bullied ... These are changing the conversations about why we question some of the actions that we had around our house. And so we need to understand that to embrace this issue, it is not as small as numbers, it's not as small as just the workplace. It is very comprehensive. So we're trying to do something different here to change the conversations and then actually grow inclusion in a very, very grassroots way at Starbucks.

RB: Sure. You know, a lot of this starts at home. It starts with what happens at your dinner table. Right? And so we can correct what happens and we're responsible for what happens when you come to work at Starbucks, but we also realize that we can only get them ever so far, but if you're at the table having some conversations that are counter to what you're learning in the workplace, you can't help but slow down your growth and your change. And so a lot of the work that we do around diversity and inclusion is open-sourced. So when we created the materials for the work when we had the closing of our stores on May 28th, we had given that to so many other companies for them to use, and even we're doing some work right now around Courageous Conversations. And in this remote world, we're allowing our partners to bring their families onto the camera or listen in the room as we have courageous conversations on diversity. So if Starbucks has a keynote speaker on a certain diversity topic, we invite the family in. And it's been really, it's been great. A lot of our senior executives have said, "This is starting new conversations with my teens at home," who are either getting bullied ... These are changing the conversations about why we question some of the actions that we had around our house. And so we need to understand that to embrace this issue, it is not as small as numbers, it's not as small as just the workplace. It is very comprehensive. So we're trying to do something different here to change the conversations and then actually grow inclusion in a very, very grassroots way at Starbucks.
