Rhiannon Parker is the founder of Loop Bioproducts focused on bringing cactus-based bioenergy and bioproducts to market. She is deeply committed to disability inclusion and serves as a special advisor to the World Institute of Disability. In this episode, Nada and Rhiannon have a candid conversation about the current situation in the Middle East and how we as leaders need to engage and not turn a blind eye to important issues impacting society today. They talk about: The challenge of engaging people who are not people of color in conversations about racism and white supremacy. The importance of language and finding effective ways to engage in discussions about sensitive topics. The erosion of pillars that were once thought to be universal truths is causing fear and uncertainty. The role of leaders in creating safe and inclusive spaces for employees. The need for finding a supportive community and building solidarity in the face of challenges and changes in the world.
