Creating Dialogue and Understanding in a Diverse Society

Picture the courage it takes to leave your homeland behind with nothing but a dream and an entrepreneurial spirit. That’s exactly what our guest for today’s episode, Julie Pham, witnessed in her parents who left Vietnam and paved their way in America. A PhD, social scientist, and organization development leader, Julie seamlessly weaves together personal anecdotes and professional insights to explore the importance of investing in relationships, even, or especially, in challenging times like the current pandemic. 

Ever been in a situation where choosing the right words made all the difference? Julie Pham has. She shares a deeply personal story about advocating for her father's respectful treatment, and how this experience amplified her understanding of diversity, equity, and inclusion. This episode also delves into her book, 'Seven Forms of Respect,' where she explores respect as a complex and subjective idea, often marred with contradictions. Julie’s insights urge us to consider the intentional nature of disrespect and how to foster a sense of belonging in our society.

Picture a world where conversations about respect take center stage, much like discussions about love languages. This is Julie's dream, and she is undeterred in her pursuit to help people grow together and build sustainable societies. We wrap up the episode by uncovering more about her book and the wealth of resources she offers on her website and YouTube channel. Tune in to learn from Julie's vision to create a world where we are better equipped to understand and respect one another. Whether it's punctuality, respect, or curiosity, Julie Pham redefines the dialogue around these concepts in a manner that's both inspiring and enlightening.
