Let‘s Sound Off On HR Tech: Introducing ‘Unpacking‘

Kristina Ashley Williams (she/her) is a leading voice in organizational cultures, futurist thinking, and inclusive design, known for her illuminating personality and experiential learning innovations. She currently serves as CEO of two dynamic ventures. Focused on the future of work, Unpacking is an online learning & certifications platform for diversity, equity, and inclusion. As the great-great niece of Jackie Robinson, her award-winning work is not just about passion; it is legacy. Williams has received notable recognition from the NAACP, Beyoncé's BEYGood Foundation, Boys & Girls Clubs of America, Techstars, Verizon, TechCrunch, and more.  

 

In this episode, Kristina and I discuss:

🎯 Why she created Unpacking

🎯 What customers can expect as they experience the platform

🎯 The challenges faced as a black woman building a tech startup

🎯 Why she believes that HR teams in the US need to become more diverse 

 

Kristina shares her joys and fears as a black female business owner in the DEI space, and I could not be more proud of her. This episode is a bit longer than usual, but you will soon see why and hope that you, too, will respect the power of the pause.
