(12 min 41 sec)
No two individuals are alike. We all have our unique traits, backgrounds, and perspectives. When we grasp the values that define each person, remarkable things happen. Relationships grow stronger, connections become more personal, and understanding takes root.
Series presented by Kelly McDonald, one of the nation's top experts
in diversity and 4-time best selling author.
Diversity in the workforce is a hot topic.
Like Westfield, your agency is likely working to ensure your workforce is diverse, inclusive, and representative of the customers you serve.
When it comes to talking about diversity at work, the goal is to move from “uncomfortable and unsure” to “confident and empowered”,
using proven tools that get real results. And that’s language everyone values.
And there are numerous ways we can be diverse – or “people not
like you.”
Diversity takes many forms. A new mom is in a very different place
than one who is an empty nester. Night owls may be able to focus in the
evening
versus an early riser. The difference between introverts and extroverts. Someone
who is foreign-born is different than someone
who is U.S. born.
Join our multi-part series featuring insight and actionable tactics with
one of the nation’s
leading experts on diversity, equity and inclusion, Kelly
McDonald.
