  • In this exclusive conversation, Dr. Jessica Kriegel sits down with Johnny C. Taylor, CEO of SHRM, to delve into the complexities of leadership, the evolving landscape of HR, and the bold shifts SHRM is making in the realm of Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion (DEI). Taylor shares his insights on the intersection of people and profit, the strategic move from DEI to Inclusion and Diversity (I&D), and his personal journey from a lawyer to a prominent HR leader.


    Johnny's personal and professional "why"

    SHRM's mission to elevate HR

    The strategic shift from DEI to Inclusion and Diversity

    The challenges and opportunities in merging people and profit

    Johnny’s unique perspective as both a CEO and former CHRO

    The importance of adaptability in leadership and HR practices


    “I want people to live their best lives... trying to figure out how to help people figure out their why and then essentially remove barriers, enable, uplift, do whatever we need to do to ensure that people live their best lives.”
    “SHRM's purpose is to elevate HR... elevating the HR profession so that the best and brightest people want to be a part of this profession, and elevating people in business so that businesses truly understand the value of their talent.”
    “If the E was dividing us but there was general agreement around the I being inclusion and the D being diversity, then let’s focus on what we agree on.”
    “Sometimes you have to be willing to take the hit for the progress... It’s about doing the right thing and the right thing yielding great business results and great people results.”
    “Human beings don't like that they talk about change, but change is more than a word... Society is incremental progress.”
