Diversity and Inclusion

“We need to give each other the space to grow, to be ourselves, to exercise our diversity. We need to give each other space so that we may both give and receive such beautiful things as ideas, openness, dignity, joy, healing and inclusion.” — Max de Pree
There has been a strong push in recent years for companies to develop diversity and inclusion (D&I) practices within their organizations. Research has consistently demonstrated that D&I practices lead to increased job performance, organizational commitment and engagement. When employees feel included in their workplace, they are more likely to buy in to management decisions, trust their direct supervisors and feel supported by their organization. A diverse employee body brings with it diverse ideas, thoughts and creativity that can help increase the organization’s success and effectiveness.
