In the crowded space that is DEI consulting the term "thought leader" gets bandied about a lot. As employees begin to hold corporate America accountable for their treatment of workers in general, and particularly their ability to create and inclusive environment DEI "gurus" seem to be coming out of the woodwork. In the midst of all the noise quietly, but fiercely advocating for a level of change so radical that it can only be described as a dismantling of work culture as we know it, is Farzin Farzad. His gentle humor and unflinching courage to say the radical truth to any power have brought a community of supporters and fans. Including O&H Consulting!
