Let’s not overcomplicate this. If you are not one of the chosen, you’re damned if you speak up and you're damned if you fail to speak up. They can talk about courage of convictions but we all know there is zero upside for all of us not chosen. You can call it selling out, or just working in your own self interest, but either way the company gets no benefit.
As for this lady, you were not chosen but rode the DEI train anyway and only now when you’re safe do you speak up. Enjoy your retirement. Don't give a second thought to the great people you held down as you enjoyed the perks of being an exec without acting like one.
