This episode continues our series of DEI conversations originally featured during the DEI Symposium of the NCDA 2024 Global Career Development Association Conference in San Diego, CA. Dr. Natasha Barnes-Gwynn hosts a discussion with Denise Felder that explores how career advising can be reimagined through a lens of decolonization.
What does it mean to decolonize? In many aspects of our lives, the concepts we live by were not developed by people like us. This discussion includes the intersections of career readiness and social justice, particularly focusing on marginalized communities. The conversation covers practical ways to make career development more inclusive by addressing systemic inequalities and reshaping traditional advising approaches.
