DEI is Good for Business

My professional society had a workshop today with a theme of Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion. DEI is a hot topic today in the world of business. Some of the advantages of an inclusive culture at work are:

  • better performance
  • increased customer understanding
  • better decision making
  • new ideas
  • stronger governance

Some of the traits of an inclusive leader are:

  • commitment
  • courage
  • cognizance of bias
  • curiosity
  • cultural intelligence
  • collaboration

For me, the highlight of the afternoon was a video entitled “Inclusion Starts With I.”
