Additional Information
We sometimes assume that members of the same racial group share the same experiences or perspectives. Although people may share a common demographic, they are still unique individuals who may have different reactions.
Diversity, equity and inclusion are about encouraging and listening to ALL voices. When ideas are dismissed or discouraged, or when there are negative consequences for speaking up, we miss opportunities for innovation and problem solving. Beating tough diversity dynamics at work means creating an environment where all voices can be hard and valued. This is everyone’s responsibility.
