They explore the foundational strategies behind Starbucks’ move to democratize education within the company. Carson discusses how this initiative has reshaped employee engagement and bolstered the company’s culture. The conversation also touches on Carson’s extensive background in various industries, providing a broader context to the effectiveness of inclusive education policies in large corporations.
