Diversity Out of the Box
Diversity is a buzz word that is floating around many offices today. Inclusion takes diversity a step forward to create cohesion within a diverse workforce. Most organizations want more diversity and better inclusion, and there are many ways to achieve it. A key point is the unique perspectives that diversity brings can encompass internal traits as well as external traits.
The current focus on diversity is not only due to the positive outcomes they can create for an office but also due to today’s modern business climate. Looking at organizations around us and the unique ways they are increasing the diversity in their workforce and the inclusion of many employees, can bring us a different focal point to take back to our own organizations.
Join us on this summer evening and explore some new perspectives on Diversity & Inclusion!
