In this episode, we delve into the concept of being "qualified" in the workplace, examining who gets labeled as such, who doesn't, and the underlying reasons. We explore "competency checking"—the practice of scrutinizing individuals' abilities—and how it disproportionately affects underrepresented groups, often going unnoticed or unchallenged. Our discussion aims to redefine qualifications in a fair, equitable, and actionable manner. Our guest, Shari Dunn , is an accomplished journalist, former attorney, news anchor, CEO, university professor, and sought-after speaker. She has been recognized as Executive of the Year and a Woman of Influence, with her work appearing in Fortune Magazine, The Wall Street Journal, Ad Age, and more. Her new book, Qualified: How Competency Checking and Race Collide at Work , unpacks what it truly means to be deserving and capable—and why systemic barriers, not personal deficits, are often the real problem. Her insights challenge the narratives that hold so many of us back and offer practical solutions for building a more equitable future. Together, we can build workplaces and communities that don’t just reflect the world we live in, but the one we want to create. A world where being qualified is about recognizing the talent and potential that’s been overlooked for far too long. It’s not just about getting a seat at the table—it’s about building an entirely new table, one designed with space for all of us.

Ancient Indian Polity and Governance Ancient Indian polity was not monolithic; republics and monarchies co-existed, interacting and influencing each other. Gana-rajyas had complex systems of governance, involving various councils, assemblies, and elected officials. Dharma, or righteous conduct, acted as a significant restraint on power, even in monarchies. Councils and ministerial advice played a crucial role in decision-making, limiting absolute monarchy. Local governance thrived in ancient India, with village councils and town assemblies managing local affairs. This podcast is generated by AI based on carefully curated material by HinduPACT…
