Vision & Storytelling: Creating Ripple Effects of Change - Jesse Cortez

Vision & Storytelling: Creating Ripple Effects of Change - Jesse Cortez

How do you create systems of change in an organization of 75,000 employees? In this episode, Jesse Cortez, VP, Diversity, Equity & Inclusion at McKesson, talks about the importance of being able to see the big picture before creating a clear vision that helps bring others along. "You have to be able to diagnose before you can prescribe." Then, Jesse says, you have to leverage storytelling to bring others along on the journey. Everyone is looking to belong and telling stories help bring people into the work to understand the 'why'. "This is where the magic comes to life."
