Diversity & Inclusion – A Financial Decision?

I tossed whether to respond to this post or not because I know Perry Riggs and know how incredibly thoughtful and well-intentioned he is. But I kept coming back to wanting to respond, so here I am…

Perry shared this great post entitled—The Financial Imperative of Diversity & Inclusion.

It’s well written and makes a very good point. However, it inspired me to make another point. A “Yes, and…” to Perry’s, if you will.

Why don’t we simply consider Diversity & Inclusion to be—

  • A moral imperative?

  • The right and proper thing to do?

  • Long overdue?

  • A societal obligation?

  • Just plain, normal?

Regardless of the financial implications…

That’s how I see it.

Stay agile my friends,

Bob.
