In today’s rapidly shifting workplace, how do you navigate career advancement while balancing merit-based promotions with diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) initiatives? In this episode of The Scott Townsend Show, I sit down with Executive Producer Ben Townsend to unpack the evolving dynamics of promotions, hiring decisions, and the broader corporate landscape.

With 40 years of business experience, I’ve seen firsthand how environmental, social, and governance (ESG) standards are reshaping corporate priorities. But what does that mean for your career trajectory? We discuss how investment firms and executive evaluations are adapting to these changes and the real impact they have on leadership pipelines.

We also dive into high-stakes industries like engineering, surgery, and aviation—fields where skill and precision are non-negotiable. Can prioritizing diversity over meritocracy have unintended consequences? We take a hard look at cases like Boeing’s struggles, the growing concerns around competence in critical roles, and how government policies are responding to these challenges.

Join us for an honest, thought-provoking conversation on how companies can balance inclusion with excellence—because in the end, both matter.
