THIS MONTH’S CLIC CONTENT:

Diversity in the Workplace
“Diversity and inclusion are not the same things. Diversity is a numbers game. Inclusion is about impact. Companies can mandate diversity, but they have to cultivate inclusion.”
READ: Survey: What Diversity and Inclusion Policies Do Employees Actually Want?, Matt Krentz, Harvard Business Review
“We found that members of majority groups continue to underestimate the obstacles – particularly the pervasive, day-to-day bias – that diverse employees face”

 

WATCH: 3 Ways to Be a Better Ally in the Workplace, Melinda Epler, TED Salon
“We make a mistake when we see diversity and inclusion as that side project over there the diversity people are working on, rather than this work inside all of us that we need to do together. And that work begins with unlearning what we know about success and opportunity.”

READ: Diversity in the Workplace in the Workplace: An Opportunity, Not an Obligation, Naz Beheshti, Forbes
”The first step, diversity, is about representation. The second step, inclusion, is about participation.”
