Truth You Can Act On:

1. Ask for feedback. You need to know what's going on in your company. As a leader, it's your responsibility to make sure your employees feel safe enough to provide feedback.
2. Diversity and inclusion should be tied to business outcomes. If we can tie inclusion into overall business strategy and important KPIs, there will be more buy-in from everyone. Tie it to the bigger picture.
3. Unconcious bias. Teach your people about what this term means. It's all about awareness.
4. Stop checking the box. It all starts with us, as leaders, to encourage diversity and inclusion.
