The business case for diversity

I'm typically asked why we need to focus on diversity in this day and age. I like to tell people that practicing diversity and inclusion is just like learning a new language. Have you ever learned to speak in a different tongue than your native one? It probably took lots of practice and focus to make sure that your diction and pronunciation made sense. Many times when people learn a new language they take it in steps and go from formal to conversational. Now think about this have you ever forgotten some of the key components of the language when you failed to practice repeatedly? Diversity is the same way. When we continue to focus on the positive aspects of diversity and inclusion and uplift it in our daily lives-we make a difference. When we decide that our work is done-it can unravel.
The Dimensions of Diversity Alliance has been created to remind us that when we work together we can accomplish our goals even faster and more effectively.
Hope to be able to communicate with you more in these blog posts and update you on our efforts!
