In this episode we were joined by Keith W McIntosh, vice president for information services and CIO at the University of Richmond who is a keynote speaker at this year's Digifest.
We spoke to Keith about his extensive work in diversity, equity, and inclusion, which includes his journey launching Intersections, a discussion group that started organically within his division then grew to include students, faculty, and staff from across the university. This group meets weekly to discuss the -isms of today, their roots in the past, and their impacts on our future.
Keith shares his advice on how to create similar groups, how to effectively facilitate these conversations and the importance of engaging in these challenging conversations.
Show notes
In the podcast Keith mentions the book "The Conversation" by Robert Livingston.
