Typically, when people think of diversity, they think of physical traits such as the color of one’s skin or physical abilities/incapabilities, etc. But diversity is much more than this. It is about appreciating our differences and including others that may have a different perspective or point of view.

While we understand its importance, we tend to associate recognition with intangible outcomes like engagement and sentiment, rather than direct impacts on retention and high performance.
