In this episode of MemberFix Radio, host Vic Dorfman interviews Dr. Peter Flores III, founder of Praxis Lead Equity, about building inclusive organizational cultures that drive business results.

Dr. Flores brings a unique perspective from 25 years in the U.S. Navy, where he rose to leadership positions during Operation Iraqi Freedom, followed by a successful career as a K-12 educator and district-level administrator. Now he helps educational institutions, government agencies, and businesses eliminate cultural blind spots that hinder success.

In this conversation, you'll learn:

The difference between equality and equity—and why it matters for your business
The 4-fold "praxis" framework: critical consciousness, reflection, analysis, and action
Why diversity is a strategic advantage, not just a buzzword
How to make people curious instead of trying to change their minds
The importance of words and clear communication in leadership
Technology challenges in running an online business (including WordPress and LearnDash)
Why equity requires action, not just conversation

Key Quote: "My job is not to change your mind. My job is to make you curious about why you think the way you do and have you do your own inside-out work."
