About This Episode

Imagine this: a workplace where every decision is transparent, every policy is fair, and every employee feels like they belong. Sounds utopian, doesn’t it? Yet, this isn’t a fiction—it’s a framework, one that Allison Wyatt is helping organizations build. This week, Carrie sits down with Allison for a journey through the mechanics of equity in the workplace, and the surprising ways clarity, consistency, and inclusion can shape not just organizations, but entire sectors.

Allison is co-founder of Edgility Consulting and has spent years unraveling what makes workplaces thrive, and what makes them falter. Her findings? They’re as provocative as they are practical. From the hidden power dynamics of HR to the unspoken biases baked into holiday calendars, Allison reveals what most leaders miss: that equity is a disciplined practice requiring honesty, humility, and a willingness to embrace complexity.

Carrie and Allison explore the emotional glue that holds employees to an organization—and the bug repellent that drives them away. Why do compensation policies, even when competitive, often leave staff feeling dissatisfied? How can leaders balance the chaos of today’s world with the need for stability? And what happens when you bring faith into the diversity, equity, and inclusion conversation?

So join us this week as Carrie and Allison unpack the hidden architecture of equitable workplaces. Whether you’re a CEO, an HR manager, or simply someone who cares about building better organizations, this conversation is important. Because in a world of uncertainty, one truth remains: when you prioritize clarity, fairness, and belonging, you don’t just improve your workplace—you transform it.
