Andrés Tapia explores ways we live in an Upside Down World. So much of what we know of how the world works has been flipped on its head. The US' position in geopolitics. The way healthcare will work in the US. How products get manufactured. How we consume entertainment. How we connect with one another. The best practices have become obsolete. But we're not sure what the new and next practices are. If all these and many more things are in the midst of questioning their basic presuppositions, then diversity should be no different. In what ways is diversity upside down? Tapia, Senior Partner at Korn/Ferry International's Diversity, Inclusion & Talent Optimization Practice, has been one of the leading voices in shaping a contemporary, next generation approach to diversity and inclusion. The approach is global, deeply integrated into talent systems, and focused on enabling marketplace success. He has over 25 years of experience as a C-suite management consultant, diversity executive, organizational development and training professional, and journalist. Throughout Europe, Asia, North America, and his native Latin America, Tapia has served clients in shaping their enterprise-wide diversity and inclusion business cases and strategies across industries -- including financial, healthcare, retail, manufacturing, government, not-for-profits, and education -- with dozens of Global 500 organizations such as John Deere, Marriott, United, Target, Cigna and Novartis as well as non-US multinationals in Brazil, South Korea, and India. Tapia, the author of a groundbreaking book, "The Inclusion Paradox: The Obama Era and the Transformation of Global Diversity," is a frequently sought after speaker on the topic of diversity and inclusion. He is the recipient of numerous leadership and diversity awards and has served on a number of boards, including currently serving on the editorial board of Diversity Executive Magazine, the corporate advisory board for the Bentley University Center for Women and Business, and Ravinia Festival.
In the spirit of ideas worth spreading, TEDx is a program of local, self-organized events that bring people together to share a TED-like experience. At a TEDx event, TEDTalks video and live speakers combine to spark deep discussion and connection in a small group. These local, self-organized events are branded TEDx, where x = independently organized TED event. The TED Conference provides general guidance for the TEDx program, but individual TEDx events are self-organized.* (*Subject to certain rules and regulations)
