I've known Prof. Yennello for decades, mostly in the context of her achievements and leadership in the American Physical Society.  I would like to share with you what I have watched her accomplish, and what I have learned from her about being an effective agent for change.  The point of this talk is to demonstrate that we can each learn to implement her techniques and create the culture in our community that will allow science and scientists to thrive.  That includes "patiently and persistently" obtaining data to measure equity and inclusion and how it is (or is not) changing under the influence of new policies and programs; persuading institutions to implement best practices and codes of conduct, along with consequences for violating them; and being a personal advocate and "upstander" at every opportunity.
