| What do financial institutions like the World Bank, government institutions like the National Institutes of Health, prestigious universities like Yale University, and The Wildlife Society have in common? They all understand the immense value of human diversity in the workplace and beyond. With diversity getting so much buzz lately, you may be wondering why it should matter to you. From making businesses more profitable, to curing more diseases, to saving more endangered species, a diverse workforce gets the job done faster and better. By spotting each other's blind spots, providing creative ideas and perspectives, and connecting with stakeholders, a diverse team is more effective. And while The Wildlife Society is working to improve diversity throughout our organization, we have a lot of work to do. Check out this talk to learn about diversity in our organization, hear examples of how diversity improves wildlife conservation, and learn tools to diversify and improve your own work. |
