WGG Inspiration Session: Color blind or color brave? | Mellody Hobson

The next Monthly Inspiration Session where all GumGummers are encouraged to join in is here!

For this session we’ll watch a 10min TedTalk on Color blind or color brave? with Mellody Hobson.

The subject of race can be very touchy. As finance executive Mellody Hobson says, it's a "conversational third rail." But, she says, that's exactly why we need to start talking about it. In this engaging, persuasive talk, Hobson makes the case that speaking openly about race — and particularly about diversity in hiring -- makes for better businesses and a better society.


For those newer to GumGum, these sessions are an opportunity for us to slow down, listen to an inspiring podcast or TedTalk, and (optional) open up to a round table discussion on what we've just watched.

Bring your coffee, lunch, etc., and let's get inspired!
