In this episode of the Thoughtful Entrepreneur, your host Josh Elledge speaks with the Chief Executive Officer of Aerodei/ Holistic Inclusion Consulting, Netta Jenkins. 

Netta Jenkins is a trailblazer in the field of diversity and inclusion. Her work is particularly relevant in our current climate, where these topics are making headlines. Netta has developed a unique platform, Aero, which gamifies measuring the impact of every employee within an organization. She firmly believes that seeing the tangible impact of one's efforts is crucial for individuals to continue championing diversity and inclusion.

Netta's platform, Aerodei, is a testament to the power of gamification in driving change. By making the process engaging and interactive, employees can see the direct impact of their efforts. Netta believes this is key to sustaining the momentum in diversity and inclusion work.
