Our brains want to make sense of the world around us. We interpret what’s happening around us through a lens filtered through our personal experiences, values and awareness. This humorous, yet poignant video helps us appreciate how easy it is to fall into diversity stereotyping. Simple lesson – never judge a book by its cover. In 2 minutes, you can test yourself about your diversity lens.

Todays’ team leaders feel constant pressure to innovate and position their products, services, teams and themselves more creatively than ever before. However, in our highly diverse workplaces, cultural and diversity intelligence are critical to success. Diversity extends beyond race or ethnicity, religion, culture or newcomer status to include factors such as geography, language, politics, gender, beliefs, economic status, abilities, skills and interests. A diverse workplace reflects our communities.
Leaders who develop, motivate and empower people to achieve extraordinary results aren’t acting randomly. By aligning diversity intelligence with leadership values, strategies and communication practices to ensure a truly collaborative, inclusive and engaging work culture environment, we can inspire our high performance teams to manage the change that is inevitable with innovation in the 21st century.
Very excited about speaking at the DIPMF on November 23. For anyone attending, I look forward to meeting you.
