Supporting Diversity in the Workplace

  1. Listen.

  2. Learn.

  3. Be an employee or manager who is aware of how external events impact your team members, and what strategies/initiatives you can initiate or promote to help support those team members. Recognize the trauma around you. Start a conversation. You’ll make mistakes but you have to try. 

  4. As an employee, when do you have to consider your complicity in some of the actions (or lack of action) done by your company? No company is ever perfect in their approach to diversity, but when does inaction or wholly inappropriate action fall onto an employee’s shoulders, as a member of the organization? When is resignation an action that is a sign of privilege or a sign of sacrifice, or both?
