How well is it serving your interests in perpetuating the status quo or providing you with a future source of competitive advantage?

What is the right balance between fitting in sufficiently to have an effective voice, and being sufficiently different to MAKE a difference?

These are important questions whenever you make a hiring (or firing) decision.

• Diversity without inclusion is just diversity and offers little in the way of innovation impact.

• Inclusion without diversity may be a short term feel good with limited impact.
  
  

It takes bravery to authentically challenge the status quo in your hiring decisions - but without it - it will be more of the same.

How deeply and authentically do you value and appreciate difference in your team?

• This point of view may offer an interesting moment of reflection.

At I LEAD Consulting we enable diverse teams, Inclusive Leaders and Collective Cultures to achieve the highest degree of performance and impact.
