EPISODE 6 - Talent and Inequity
EP 6: Rethinking Bias-Free Talent Systems

If conversations around fairness, inclusion, and workplace equity often feel limited to policies and promises, this episode takes the discussion several layers deeper. From unconscious bias and equitable hiring to supporting working mothers, artisan communities, and differently abled employees, this conversation explores what it truly takes to build workplaces where opportunity is genuinely accessible to all. In this episode of People Matters Unplugged, Cheshta Dora, Head of Content, Research and Community at People Matters, speaks with Sudesh Behra about how organisations can move beyond performative DEI and build fairer talent systems. Sudesh shares insights on tackling bias through leadership, governance, technology, and listening-led HR practices. The episode also explores AI-powered talent marketplaces, inclusive career mobility, and maternity support frameworks that are helping shape more equitable workplaces today.
