Are you considering making your team more diverse? As you probably already know, diversity on teams, and throughout organizations, is essential for sustainable success, especially in uncertain, changing, and ambiguous times. Why?

How it is that some organizations have diverse leadership teams while others seem to only have leaders who look, act, and talk the same? I once heard an executive leader of a 25,000-person organization located in a very diverse metro area in the U.S. say that while they believed in women in leadership, they couldn’t find any qualified enough in their organization. Somehow, I highly doubt that to be entirely true.
