Extending generosity and respect in a complex world depends on our ability to thrive while navigating the cultural landscapes of language, behavior, beliefs and values regardless of our own ethnic, religious, economic or social identities.
How do we recognize, value and support the diverse perspectives of our workforce? What factors lead to open communication with the best interests of everyone at heart? How do we move forward together with so many issues, nuances, and feelings at play between us and the person(s) we see as ‘other’? How do we take leadership in creating safe and welcoming environments where every voice is heard?
