DIAN Decade Episode 7: Implementing 'The Live Case Study'

DIAN Decade Thought Leadership Podcast Series features a number of leading D&I experts that we have worked with over the years with Asian market knowledge. Each podcast will address a different topic, depending on the expertise of the featured expert.

In this episode, we explore Connie Wong's interactive 'live case study' as a tool for expanding conversations and building awareness around D&I. We also learn more about unconscious bias and how training to mitigate biases, particularly around cultural differences, has evolved over the years. Connie is Managing Director of CSW Associate Inc., the leading global consulting firm with teams based in over 25 countries focusing on diversity and inclusion in today's workforce.

Founder & Managing Director, CSW Associates Inc.

Connie Wong established CSW Associates Inc. in 2009 with the idea that complex issues should be addressed through interaction rather than instruction. Connie's beliefs evolved out of her extensive experience in the financial services and airline industries as a Director of Training, as well as her academic training in organisational development and negotiation skills. In addition to holding a Master Degree in Human Resources and Organisational Development, she has completed training in the Harvard Negotiation Project and serves on the National Board of Governors of the Equality Forum. She is frequently called upon to support business strategies, facilitate diversity initiatives and administer executive coaching. She is often asked by media to identify and comment on workplace diversity challenges. She is an accomplished public speaker and facilitator, and has appeared on ABC's 20/20. She has been quoted in print and online outlets including Fortune Magazine, The New York Times and Gannett newspapers, and has been interviewed on radio oulets such as NPR.
