On today’s podcast, we have the pleasure of talking with Chely Wright, Unispace’s recently minted first Chief Diversity Equity & Inclusion Officer. Chely brings a background that fuses advocacy, business, real estate and communications, and has worked with companies such as Procter & Gamble, Southeastern Grocers and Morgan Stanley to advance their DE&I programs, having established relationships with organizations such as GLSEN, GLAAD, Human Rights Campaign, and Interfaith Alliance.

But, if you seem to know Chely’s name, it’s because before taking this role, she was a renowned country music artist and activist for LGBT rights but also working with military members and veterans, which she’ll reference in our conversation. 

Welcome to the podcast, Chely!
