2021 Christmas Lectures Part 3 – Class Diversity At Work

The three lectures this year all focus on groups of people who are too often overlooked when it comes to recruiting and developing talent, which leaves an awful lot of potential stuck on the sidelines.

Class diversity is something that rarely gets mentioned when we discuss diversity and inclusion at work, yet up to 40% of workers from lower classes say that they experience harassment and discrimination in the workplace.

It’s a topic that the University of California, Hastings College of the Law’s Joan Williams covers extensively in her recent book Bias Interrupted, with her work on class diversity building extensively on her previous book White Working Class, which is the topic of her TEDx talk below.
