Inclusiveness occurs when everyone is recognized, accepted and valued for their uniqueness and are free to express their diverse point of view.
Key Takeaways
- Discrimination is not always overt or obvious.
- Even the most enlightened people have prejudices attributable to life experiences. It’s how we manage them that makes the difference.
- Self-awareness is a powerful tool, especially when we’re not even aware that our thoughts are influenced by a deeply seeded belief.
- Explore, learn, and listen to the diversity around you.
- Identify assumptions, talk about the subject, not the person and use inclusive language.

Diversity and inclusion represent a tremendous source of strength if we learn how to use our differences to our advantage. We must practice inclusion by drawing on each other’s cultures, talents and ideas to create a more equitable and productive workplace. This requires an ongoing commitment and support from all employees.
