We talk about how:

  • Diversity goes beyond the surface. It requires us to be truly open to learning about each other and genuine.
  • Managers who struggle to lead diverse teams may not be ready, and are often promoted too fast. It is a slow process to develop and prepare someone to lead people. 
  • Our childhood experiences influence our professional development perspectives, and outlook. 
  • Nurturing family traditions such as fishing trips create lasting memories while appreciating the beauty found in nature.
