Welcome to our No Labels, No Limits podcast as we interview Dr. Brandon Harris, a researcher, educator and Diversity, Equity and Inclusion (DE&I) professional.


Brandon is all about achieving success through culturally-competent team-building strategies, backed by his research and educational expertise. He's an award-winning academic known for promoting diversity and inclusivity on various campuses and corporate spaces, including in the nonprofit sector. But what truly sets him apart is his passion for showing how research methods can be life-changing AND empowering underrepresented students and faculty in higher education and business to turn their passion into their paycheck!


Today, Brandon shares a bit about:

  • Research as a Resource 
  • The danger of "chasing a carrot" when seeking funding and support
  • Storytelling Forwards and Backward - building a story from anecdotes or data, or both and how to back up your impact
  • What he’s learned working in short-lived grant-funded/grant-dependent programs


After listening to today's episode, you will be better equipped with the research tools to overcome life's hurdles, diversify income streams, build relationships, and help others do the same. Dr. Harris says, "There's a difference between understanding and agreement. You don't attract what you want, you attract what you are."
