Women Leaders Podcast, Episode 89: Nevin Caple

In this podcast, Patti Phillips is joined by Nevin Caple, Principal Consultant and Founder of Return of Inclusion.

Nevin used the knowledge and experience from her own background in sport to start not one, but THREE, companies and become a national thought leader on diversity, inclusion and belonging in athletics.

Through her latest endeavor, Return on Inclusion, Nevin focuses on educating administrators and coaches and teaching them to navigate difficult conversations within their departments and with their student-athletes. 

In our conversation, we go deeper into several of Nevin’s six ROI modules that include topics such as covering, anti-racism, and privilege. When teaching these concepts, she talks about starting in a place of awareness, but then the importance of moving to activation, advocacy and even becoming an accomplice. She also gives important tips to those creating new D&I positions in their departments.

We also talk about leading during the ongoing pandemic and global reckoning happening surrounding the Black Lives Matter movement. Nevin reminds us that change starts with ourselves and stresses that it is never too late to become better.

We hope you enjoy our conversation, and remember, we are Women Leaders!
