Hey! I'm Adriele (ay-dree-el), an independent diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) consultant-or as I prefer, DEI thought partner. More specifically, I help folks identify & take actionable steps towards integrating diversity, equity, and inclusion into their work.
I also help other other DEI professionals design effective workshops and strengthen their facilitation skills so that they may best support their organization and/or clients.
I am, however, *so* much more than *just* a DEI consultant. At my core, I'm a creative being. And unapologetically so. Often people get boxed into a profession or label, and I aim to take a different approach. I believe being a well-rounded, curious human has not only allowed me to be true to myself, but it's made (and continues to make) me a better DEI consultant. You can learn more about me (the human me) by visiting my social links, checking out my website, and ofc, subscribing to this channel.
❤️

Episode 51: The term code-switching gets tossed around often, especially among folks working in spaces where few people share their identities. In this episode of "DEI in 5," I'm joined by DEI consultant and middle manager expert, Caren Young (@theprofessionaladult ) and DEI strategist & leadership coach, Clarissa "Clo" Fuselier (founder of Inclusion.Logic), as we explore the complex nature of code-switching.
We'll be addressing key questions such as:
What is code-switching really?
Did you know it can be both conscious and unconscious?
How does code-switching involve more than just changing how you speak, but also adjusting your mannerisms, appearance, and behavior to be more accepted?
What are some of the pros and cons of code-switching, or better yet, not code-switching?
How can we be more self-aware of the moments when we code-switch?
What can others do to support us?

No, it is because the DEI hiring committee could check off enough marks.
diversity hire begs not to be called diversity hire
Stop hating whites!!!
If Reverse Racism exists then please explain to me can I own white slaves where are my white slaves and why are all the police officers white they should be black every police officer should be black does anyone have a problem what I'm saying if you have a problem when I'm saying then Reverse Racism does not exist because if it did exist that means black people can do the same thing to white people black police officers can get away with murder black people can own white people as slaves property white people are fighting for their rights to be human beings only then someone can say Reverse Racism is real until black people are in charge and white people are at the bottom then Reverse Racism is real
Praying for you 🙏🏾😢
I just made a lateral move within my organization. It has been a game changer! It reduced my stress and workload without affecting my salary.
If they’re a diversity hire they’re a diversity hire. Let’s call a spade a spade
Hiring based on race….i remember when that was a negative
what you are saying is that if you are racist toward white people you are not racist, because you can't oppress the oppressor, even though you can, and also not every white person is a racist oppressor. i can't believe there is even a argument about whether its real or not.
DEI Hires are a proven fact. When the Government stops doing it. We will stop talking about it. Kamala Harris DEI Hire KJP DEI Hire Ketanji Brown DEI Hire Secret Service White Female DEI Hire ...list goes on
The term "diversity hire" is demeaning? Sounds like something a diversity hire would say 🤣🤣
Currently, companies everywhere are ending DEI. Suddenly, this woman has no more content material.
Thank you so much for sharing your journey from the perspective and experience of someone who has kept the weight off! I’m very early in my journey and your story helps provide reassurance that long-term weight loss maintenance is very possible! Thank you!
DEI zuck
Discrimination towards anyone is wrong lets all try to be nice to each other
Speaking with big words but no substance. Justify your racism
Keep teaching the truth. Thank you 💙
DEI Didn't Earn It
Historically?
DEI ensures less qualified people. Instead of picking the best from all people, it limits choices to a smaller subset of choices to ensure race/sex representation By definition (not assumption), DEI guarantees less qualified people
Dei is racism hiring someone based on being a minority not qualifications
Reverse racism is just racism again whitez
So when are you going to share DEI with Somalia?
Didnt Earn It
"Revere racism" IS RACISM.
Girl, this is confirmation. I was thinking it's time to make the switch currently dealing with workplace discrimination.
Racism is racism. Definition. The discrimination or bias based on race or ethnicity.
As a brown person racism by definition is the discrimination, bias, or prejudice towards someone based on there race or colour. White black or brown doesn't matter its racism. My white friends gf family are black and they were racist to him cuz he is white. And also dont air quote anti white racism cuz racism is racism. And my white friends who get shit for being white like you cant dance your food is bland and everyone is racist are all stereotypes and that is racism
But racism...😂😂😂😂😂
YOU are a DIVERSITY HIRE!! 😊
Affirmation action programs are based on the theory of a conspiracy by white males to control and subdue everyone else at everyone else’s expense but their own A 5 year old understands “that’s not how the world works” But yet 50 years later we still have emotionally compromised adults championing conspiracy theories and when you ask them for the substantive data they are all standing their holding an empty sack and making emotional appeals “because I just FEEL like”
Any race can be racist to one another. It has absolutely NOTHING to do with power blah blah blah. You just don’t want to be held accountable for your actions. Saying stuff like “it’s just prejudice” is literally just an excuse to be racist and so that you sound ‘politically correct’ even tho you just being a hypocrite 😭
Sad that our hair can determine our opportunities and that this is still a conversation in 2024. I just wear my natural hair and know that an opportunity truly meant for me won't involve an evaluation of the state of my hair.
What about DEI hires in the Secret Service? Is that even appropriate given what the duties are? Look at the responses of the agents at the Trump incident. The one female couldn't even holster her gun. She looked like she needs to be in a weight loss program rather than protecting Trump. Both female agents looked like they were lost. Was it an estrogen related response? Lack of testosterone was making their emotions take over? These are important factors.
Anyone who gets into dei is just because they hate straight white men. If it was about fairness it would be about merit.
If you being hired has anything not to do with your resume/interview. Sorry your a dei hire
It's extremely rare for people to not have access to social and other governmental services. The bent of this discussion is odd. For the vast majority of people out there, if they need help and then spend almost any energy at all in the pursuit of assistance - they will get it. Perhaps the disabled and children might find it difficult... but not healthy adults.
What could she possibly be angry about? Blacks have had their asses kissed for generations. Especially black women. Blacks have been catered to. "Get back" ? Seriously? Blacks are allowed to be openly racist and they are applauded for it.
I'm lucky to I have started my career in fashion and contemporary art, so I always had my natural hair out and in whatever style I felt like. I think it was more accepted and seen as creative. Now did I lose opportunities or get stereotyped? Yes and that's not fair, but I wouldn't change a thing. I have also noticed when I wore a wig from time to time that was more 3C I would get more positive feminine attention, but if I wore a big 4C Afro wig I would be called. " Militant." It's a conundrum we should not have to navigate since this is a "not our problem" situation.
No lady. That is not what reverse racism is. Reverse racism (AKA just racism) is the exact same thing as racism except against whites instead of blacks.
In other words , your told how to behave , what to think , and what to say .
Good. This gives me hope in society. :)
It is perfectly normal and acceptable for 81% of CDOs are hhhwite. :)
💩dei - didnt earn it.
SHE HAS BEEN CORRECT!! ❤
You are not oppressed. You are not a victim.
The left went an entire week after the debate avoiding mentioning Harris name as a possible replacement for Biden. They know and they’ve known since day one that she was a failed DEI hire. You may not like the term, but the truth will always set you free
It’s sad how many of these oxygen wasters ruin companies. DEI and ESG are, at their nucleus, not conducive to high performance. Companies, government and colleges need to be more exclusive, vs more inclusive. If you cannot perform what’s required of you at the highest possible level you have no place in roles that exceed your intellectual capacity.
Your just describing racism with extra steps
based on Dictionary it's still "RACISM"
