Corporate communications / public relations

They've largely subverted the occasionally useful profession of journalism. There's a big difference between researching things your audience wants to know, and asking someone with a commercial agenda what they'd like to tell your audience.

Diversity and Inclusion Officer

[–] Nardatronic@lemm.ee 7 points 1 year ago (1 children)

I dunno. There's an inclusion officer at my kids school who's sole role is to make sure kids get the help that they need to not get left behind academically. They don't have "Diversity" in their title, so it may not be demographic driven which I'm guessing is the distinction.

[–] lorty@lemmy.ml 6 points 1 year ago (1 children)

They mean the C-Suite "position" that changes absolutely nothing about inclusion or diversity in the company.

Very controversial statement but really couldn't be more true. Of course there might be exceptions but most of the time it's a cushy job where you are paid exorbitant amounts to do practically nothing of value.
