Description

We're a community who envision a world that's more Just, Equitable, Decolonized and Inclusive (JEDI). We're changing the way we see ourselves and each other, and shifting our worldview on business by looking through a JEDI lens.I’m your host, Rosie Yeung (she/her), a Chinese-Canadian immigrant with invisible disabilities, and I’m a JEDI speaker, coach and facilitator. Do you also want to be a JEDI Warrior for social impact? Then please join me in Changing Lenses! Each episode is hosted on colonized land that was taken from many Indigenous nations, including the Anishinaabe, the Huron-Wendat, and the Haudenosaunee Confederacy. I seek Truth and Reconciliation with First Nations, Inuit and Métis people of Turtle Island, and I call upon us all to decolonize our thinking, not just our systems.

Ep310: Antisemitism and Yom HaShoah: Jewish Holocaust Memorial Day, with Alice Henry
2022/04/27
The Shoah is the Hebrew term for the Holocaust, and the full name of Yom Hashoah VeHagevurah literally means the “day of remembrance of the Catastrophe and the Heroism.” How much do you know about Yom HaShoah, and what happens on this day? What’s the difference between Yom HaShaoah and the United Nations’ International Holocaust Remembrance Day? Alice Henry draws on her family’s experience of the Holocaust, and her own experience as an Ashkenazi Jewish woman, to share about Yom HaShoah, historic and current antisemitism, Jewish holidays, and much more in this episode of Changing Lenses. Bonus: stay with us to the end for a special Yom HaShoah memorial service.

Ep309: White Supremacy Culture from a White Man’s Perspective, with Jeff Akin
2022/04/12
If you were emotionally OK enough with the episode title to click on the link, thanks for making it this far! I’m only partly kidding. The words “white supremacy culture” are definitely triggering, and not just for white people. What that phrase even means is hard to explain. So when fellow podcaster and white American male Jeff Akin told me he was (gently) raising awareness about white supremacy culture (“WSC”) at his workplace – and he works for the government – and he’s a high-level executive – I was super curious to know how he felt about WSC. Besides being an executive leader, Jeff also teaches about leadership in his podcast, The Starfleet Leadership Academy. I admit, I had preconceived notions about what yet another white man would have to say. But Jeff changed my lens when he shared his own learning journey and struggles with WSC, to now being a champion against it. Join me in hearing this high school educated, ex-Navy, pro-wrestling-TV-broadcaster-turned-executive-leader share how he’s helping dismantle white supremacy culture! In this episode, you’ll learn:Ways white supremacy culture manifests in Western workplacesHow Jeff gradually changed in response and understanding of white supremacy cultureThe difference between white supremacy culture and a white supremacistJeff’s primary weapon against white supremacy cultureHow to speak up on controversial issues when you can’t speak freelyLink to episode transcript here.

Ep308: What Ramadan Means to Me, with Saleha Khan
2022/03/30
Ramadan Mubarak! This special episode of the Changing Lenses podcast is being released just before the holy month of Ramadan, an incredibly significant time in the Islamic faith. Before I met Saleha Khan, the only thing I really knew about Ramadan was that people fasted for the whole month between sunrise and sunset. In order to truly appreciate what Ramadan means, and how it would be celebrated if Islam was the norm (vs. Christianity or secularism), I asked Saleha to share how she experiences Ramadan. Saleha was born in Pakistan, raised in Saudi Arabia, and now lives in Canada. She graciously agreed to share her childhood stories of Ramadan in Riyadh, and how that compares to Ramadan as a Muslim woman in Canada. Saleha also happens to be a specialist in equity, diversity and inclusion, having worked in this field for over 20 years, almost 14 of which was spent with various Ontario police forces. In this episode, you’ll learn:The spiritual and relational meaning of RamadanWhy people fast during Ramadan, and who does (and doesn’t) fastThe hardest part of fasting for Saleha (surprise, it’s not feeling hungry!)If you’re not Muslim, how you can create an inclusive work environment for people who honour RamadanIf you are Muslim, how you can advocate for more inclusion at work during RamadanFull episode transcript available here.

I grew up in a multi-lingual and multi-cultural setting and I find that experience has helped me gain insights into human behavior that has supported my journey in leadership development for those entrusted to me. I see this work as a social and ethical responsibility that needs critical perspective and global viewpoints to not only begin courageous conversations in safe spaces but to create those bold places where conversations turn into actions that bring about culture shift.

Ep307: Going Resume-Free to Hire More Inclusively, with Allie Knull
2022/03/23
Have you ever felt in your job hunt that you’re being judged on something that doesn’t even represent who are you? Or at best, it only represents a very small part of the whole you. And yet “woke” companies are claiming to want employees to bring their “whole selves” to work. I’m saying it out loud: resumes are a terrible tool for hiring, on both the recruiter and the candidate’s side. There are a million reasons why, but one that really stands out is what a racialized job seeker said to me in the last episode. They said, “the resume doesn’t represent who I am.” So I was ecstatic to meet a fellow resume rebel in Allie Knull. Allie is the Founder and CEO of ResumeFree™, is a former recruiter, and is “absolutely disgusted” with resumes. Companies, employers, recruiters – if you mean it when you say you want more diversity in your organization – then please listen to why a tool that was created in the 1950’s, by a workforce of primarily white men, is not going to get you there. Are you ready? Put your JEDI Visionary lenses on, and let’s go! In this episode, you’ll learn:A better way to screen job candidates without using resumesWhy keyword searches and AI (artificial intelligence) are harmfulWhat to watch out for if using tests and assessmentsHow to create data and metric based decisions in hiringFull transcript available here. Are you looking for job search and career coaching?As a racialized, recovering recruiter, I'm here to 👉🏻 "Help you survive the search!"👈🏻 Find more support and resources, and contact me directly at: https://www.changinglenses.ca/ Guest Bio and References/Links About Allie Knull: Allie Knull’s passion for talent management has spanned her twenty-year career. Although her career started with international companies, Allie’s recent focus is helping small and scaling business owners master their talent management. Her absolute disgust for resumes was the driving force behind her start-up, ResumeFree™, where they inclusively move top talent from inbox to interview, with their revolutionary screening-as-a-service platform. Allie is a Chartered Professional in Human Resources (CPHR) with CPHR Alberta, a Senior Chartered Professional with the Society for Human Resource Management (SHRM-SCP) and a Registered Professional Recruiter (RPR) with the Institute of Professional Management.

Ep306 Real Talk with Rosie: In the War for Talent, Candidates Become Casualties
2022/03/16
This episode is all about the experiences of racialized people looking for work. Job hunting is hard enough as it is; but add on to that being Black, Indigenous, Latinx, Asian, and any other racialized identity that isn’t white – and it’s even harder. This is the 3rd in the series of 4 LinkedIn Lives that I’m re-sharing as podcast episodes, so you loyal listeners also get all the amazing career advice my guests provided. There’s a reason why it’s just me on this episode, without any of the people I spoke to. It’s because they don’t feel safe saying this out loud, in public. So companies, employers, recruiters – please pay attention to what these job seekers have to say about the way they experience your hiring process. If you want to treat people more equitably and inclusively, and diversify your work force – the way you’re working isn’t working. And if you’re a racialized job seeker, I hope you feel validated and less alone as you hear these stories. Trigger warning, you may not want to hear more about a frustrating process right now, and that’s OK. Please take care of yourself. Either way, please know you’re not crazy, and you are being heard. . . In this episode, you’ll learn about these traumatic job seeker experiences:The Cone of SilenceThe Gated Community EffectHypocritical Job DescriptionsUnequal Burden of ProofUnequal Distribution of PowerLink to episode transcript here.

Ep305: We Need to Talk About Period Pain. Period. With Lux Perry
2022/03/08
Endometriosis affects more people than prostate cancer, breast cancer and heart disease combined. It's in the top 20 most painful diseases in the world, and there’s no cure. It affects 1 in 10 people with a uterus. And it is so undiagnosed, so misunderstood, that patients get threatened with expulsion from school, or fired from work. Today is International Women’s Day. It happens once a year. But this disease affects the people who have it at least once a month, and Lux Perry has suffered from it for over 15 years.  In this episode, you’ll learn:The crippling effects of endometriosisWho can get it (hint: it’s not just women)The ways capitalism, ableism and misogyny are linkedHow period discrimination presents in work and schoolHow companies can create a culture of inclusion for people with periods (and disabilities)If you know someone else who’s been told their period pain is normal; who is struggling to hold a 9-to-5 job or attend school; or has been silenced by patriarchal society – please share this episode with them so they know they’re not alone.

Ep304: Building Walls against Immigrants: Systemic Barriers to Employment, with Xin Yi Yap
2022/03/02
When you’re job hunting, does it sometimes feel like you’re trying to breach an impenetrable fortress? Recruiters and hiring managers talk about attracting top talent, but when it comes down to it, they act more like an immigration department trying to keep undesirable people out, than warmly welcoming people in. And if we’re going to compare recruiting to an immigration process, the best person to do that is someone who’s going through both. Meet Xin Yi Yap, the special guest on this episode. She is a Singaporean who moved to the U.S. to go to university, and now that she’s graduated, she needs to work in a qualifying job in order to stay in the country. You don’t have to be a foreign student or visa worker to relate to Xin Yi’s story. If you’ve ever been rejected by an employer because you didn’t fit their profile; or if you’ve ever been passed over for a job you KNOW you can do because of your accent or other irrelevant excuse – then you’ve experienced what I call the Gated Community Effect. This is the second of 4 LinkedIn Lives that I’m re-sharing as podcast episodes. If you’d prefer to watch the full video recording of the whole Live episode, you’ll find it on my website at www.changinglenses.ca/trainingvideos. In this episode, you’ll learn:How U.S. immigration is like the Hunger GamesStereotypes and microaggressions against international students and employeesThe fallacy of “stealing jobs” from citizensWhy we need to decolonize self-confidenceHow employers can recruit more equitablyInspiring advice for international students and job seekers todayIf you know someone else who’s going through the Gated Community Effect, please forward this episode to them so they can feel supported.

Hailing from Southeast Asia, Xin Yi looks at IDEAS issues through an intersectional and international lens. She understands that systems of oppression manifests differently throughout the world, and is thus able to facilitate conversations of change with folks from different backgrounds.  Xin Yi has also worked with multinational organizations on a multitude of ways to cultivate equity, inclusion, and belonging for all, from IDEAS workshops to strategy implementation.

Ep303: Culturally Relevant Career Tips to Empower You, with Oscar Garcia
2022/02/23
Almost all the career counselling, mentorship, corporate training etc. I’ve received have been almost exclusively from white people. Nothing wrong with that – I’ve been blessed to receive great advice and support from many white leaders over the years. But I’m not white. And I had to filter a lot of the info I got through my cultural lens. So when I discovered Oscar Garcia, the special guest for this episode – I knew I had to have him on the podcast. Oscar is a Hispanic-American immigrant who went from being an ESL student to an author and founder of his own company, Aspira Consulting. Oscar’s mission is to empower you, so opportunities come to you. If you, like me, have been craving career advice and mentorship from a racialized corporate leader who is relatable and relevant, Oscar provides that in this episode. 👉🏻And if you know someone who needs culturally relevant empowerment, please share this episode with them. You can share straight from wherever you’re listening to this podcast right now, or from my website, www.changinglenses.ca/podcast. Thank you, JEDI friends!

If you’re Black, you’re probably well aware of what Walter Gainer II is going to share in this episode. (Trigger warning, the content may be traumatizing or upsetting to you – please take care of yourself and stop listening at any point.) . . If you’re not Black – you NEED to hear what Walt has to say. I thought I knew about the issue from the general media – but in my privilege, I had no idea how pervasive and intrusive anti-Black hair discrimination actually is. . . If you’re an employer or manager – you especially need to hear Walt’s stories.

Ep301: Who Decides When You’re Good Enough?
2022/02/09
Have you ever tried to do something for the very first time? If so, what did you hear more often: . ❌ “Who do you think you are?” or ✅ “I believe in you!” . . When I started my first ever podcast from scratch with no experience, I had to believe in myself before others believed in me. It’s natural to want validation from others before we actually take a leap of faith. But if we just keep waiting for that to happen, we might never get started on that BIG IDEA or PASSION that only you have the vision to see. . . ✨Because I forged ahead and followed my passion, I’m proud and incredulous to launch Season Three of the Changing Lenses podcast today!🎉 . . It’s taken me three seasons to finally have the confidence to say: . . This is a podcast about JEDI, which stands for Justice, Equity, Decolonization and Inclusion. Our mission in Changing Lenses is to envision a more JEDI way to work and do business by seeing from diverse worldviews. . .

Bonus Ep213: Talking Allyship and Solidarity on the Know Nonsense Anti-Racism Podcast
2021/11/10
Anti-Racism. Black Lives Matter. Allyship and Solidarity between equity-seeking groups. We’ve touched a bit on these with Changing Lenses podcast guests over the last year, but haven’t dived as deeply into these topics as my friend and fellow podcaster Nura Yunus has. She created the Know Nonsense Podcast to educate listeners about the experiences and systems of racism that exist in Canada and across the world, and the ways in which they show up for people of colour every single day. Nura is a Black Muslim woman, born and raised in Canada to parents who immigrated from Eritrea. The Know Nonsense Podcast is Nura’s passion project which she does on 100% volunteer basis, while she’s working full time in international development. So today, I’m excited to share (with Nura’s permission) a slightly shorter version of our episode called “Talking Allyship and Solidarity”, which originally aired on the Know Nonsense podcast on October 29, 2021. In this episode, you’ll learn about: Identity in relatedness, not accomplishmentsThe self-sacrifices required in allyshipExamples of solidarity (and division) in DEI and workplaces todayRacism within our own familiesPower brokers vs. allies (credit: Mary-Frances Winters)White supremacy culture, vs. white culture supremacyContact Rosie and find JEDI resources at:  https://www.changinglenses.ca/ Full transcript available here. Guest Bio and References/Links About Nura Yunus: Nura Yunus (she/her) is a Black Muslim woman born and raised in Toronto, the traditional territory of many nations including the Mississaugas of the Credit, the Anishnabeg, the Chippewa, the Haudenosaunee and the Wendat peoples and is now home to many diverse First Nations, Inuit and Métis peoples. Nura currently works in international development and before this worked with various grassroots and non-profit organizations in program design and delivery, community development and workshop facilitation. Her passion for anti-Black racism has recently led to the creation of the Know Nonsense Anti-Racism podcast, a resource for learning about racial injustice from a Canadian perspective. When she isn’t working on the podcast you can find her reading works by authors of colour, watching documentaries, or hiking one of Toronto’s many beautiful parks.
