Our team hired someone specifically to help with equity and inclusion work and now six months later they're basically isolated, their suggestions get polite nods but no follow-through, and I can see them getting frustrated. As someone who pushed for this hire, I feel responsible but I don't know how to address what's happening without calling out the whole team's behavior.
More people experience this than they realize.
Organizations often hire for change they're not actually ready to implement, leaving changemakers isolated and ineffective.
