sW4H 32 | Kelley Johnson Diversity, Equity and Inclusion is Everyone’s Business

Guests: Kelley Johnson

Ministry/Business: Keirus by KJE

YouTube Video Interview

Challenges around diversity, equity, and inclusion in the workplace are not new but still relevant. Over the last couple of years, those issues have been impossible to gloss over. When we discriminate against people for whatever reason, everyone pays a costly price. Kelley is Founder and CEO of KEIRUS by KJE, which helps organizations understand and build the “POWER OF WE,” creating spaces where people can add value and thrive. She is also the former host of the Cubicles & Christ podcast and author of Infinite: The Power of Love and Emerge!: Rise Up, Be Fearless and Take Possession of Your Purpose. She sees how DEI efforts are often aimed at hiring but stop short of enabling true workplace culture transformation. 

Kelley didn’t always operate like her work mattered to God. She wasn’t taught how to live her faith at work. But, once God opened her eyes to the fact that He cares about every part of our lives, she felt compelled to help others come to this realization and launched her podcast Cubicles & Christ. Today, Kelley is on a mission to help people not only understand the full breadth of what DEI is all about, but she also helps people understand how they can be part of the solution through the way they embrace diversity, make equitable decisions and take an active part in including others. She wrote Infinite: The Power of Love as a small group Bible study for workplaces and working Christians in the Church to learn what God says about DEI and how each of us can make a difference.
