The Power of Diversity and Inclusion:
|
Date & Time: February 27, 2019 | 8:00 am - 12:00 pm |
Diversity is the mix, and inclusion is making the mix work! Diversity is being invited to the party; inclusion is being asked to dance. |
With globalization, diversity – age, education, gender, orientation, race and ethnicity, faith, socio-economic profile, and personal background – becomes magnified. Acknowledging differences and the unique contribution of everyone can invigorate an organization and inspire unity.
Evidence shows that when people feel valued, they function at full capacity and feel part of the organization’s mission. This culture shift creates higher performing organizations and healthier communities where motivation, collaboration, and morale soar.
