Diversity and Equality (Eliicia)

In a Ted Talk we watched, it has been said that “losing cultural diversity is dangerous; each
culture has something to offer.”

What does diversity mean to you, and how important would you say having a diverse work
environment is?

How (culturally or gender) diverse would you say your current work environment is? And what
have been the biggest challenges of that?

Can you describe any experience that opened your eyes to the importance of maintaining a
level of diversity in the workplace?

Have you ever personally experienced a situation of discrimination or inequality? How would
you say that impacted your leadership skills?

As a woman, have you faced any situations of inequality or conflict? Do you have any advice for
future women leaders, or future leaders in general, on how to address those types of situations
especially when it comes from someone they are leading?

How do you ensure each of your followers are feeling heard and respected equally?

As a leader, how would you say you welcome diverse cultures and differences while also
ensuring everyone feels apart of one team?
