And one of the reasons that I believe it's often difficult for managers to create a sense of belonging. And you experienced it with a manager who knew you, knew how to motivate you, knew what it was important to you, knew how to encourage you.

And in a way that you can understand what's important to them, what's important to them in their life, what they need to be successful in their jobs.

Those are all things that are important in determining how you build a diverse workforce. The reality is most of the diverse elements that we bring to work are unseen.
