The Diversity Gap: Choose Your Framework - The Equity Imperative w/ Ale Trevino and Deshawn Adams

By Bethaney Wilkinson

Chapter 4: Choose Your Framework - The Equity Imperative w/ Ale Trevino and Deshawn Adams


Insight: There are many frameworks for pursuing organizational culture and diversity, and each has different objectives.


Action: Choose your framework and know why.


The conversation I’m sharing with you today is with my friends Deshawn Adams and Ale Trevino. Deshawn is a human capital consultant for Deloitte and he and I connected many years ago through a racial justice education program we were co-leading at our church. And Ale is an MBA Candidate at Kellogg School of Management, but prior to being a grad student was also at Deloitte working as a consultant and strategist. I got to know Ale through an organization we both love called Plywood People. I had Deshawn and Ale on the podcast because last year, they were on the team at Deloitte that created a report called The Equity Imperative. This report, which is linked in the show notes, is full of world-class research and business insights for leaders who want to do more than talk a good game about DEI. I was so grateful to be able to talk Ale and Deshawn about the equity imperative and about what racial equity requires of us in this day and age.


Quick note, while Deshawn and Ale created this report at Deloitte, the opinions they express in our conversation belong to Deshawn and Ale alone, and do not reflect an official perspective of Deloitte as a company.
