Is your phone charged? Are you like me and rely on the zillion apps on your mobile phone? I know I feel connected and informed when the battery is charged and disconnected when it’s not. Trust me, this compares to diversity and inclusion.
Now, think about your connectivity, energy, and motivation at work. Does your workplace have an inclusive and diverse environment in which individuals feel comfortable being themselves and motivated to freely contribute?
I am blessed to work with amazing clients and alongside of talented teams that promote a diverse workforce and foster inclusivity. Together, we are a POWERHOUSE of innovation, addressing various perspectives and ideas. We share and inspire each other with life experiences and ways to overcome obstacles. Most importantly, we have a deep and profound respect for each other. I have come to rely on these relationships like my apps. It is like having a phone charger on a long road trip. It is not a nice to have, but a need to have.
Take a moment to think about how diversity and inclusion takes part in shaping you, others, your organization and team.
The Challenge: Continue the ripple effect on Workplace D&I awareness. Why do you think Workplace Diversity and Inclusion are important?
