It's important that we start with ourselves. So there are many things in an organization that we can and cannot change. And the more senior you are, maybe you have more impact over a larger organization. group and the more junior you are, your impact is narrower, but we can all start with ourselves. So we all have stories of feeling included or excluded.

And I like to, when I'm talking to groups, I like to ask people to reflect on that. What's something that they think about when they were included or when they were excluded, how did that make them feel? And I think that's a real source of power for creating a sense of inclusion for yourself and your coworkers and even your customers. So if you start with yourself, you can impact a lot.

Then you have to build out from there. And I think the last thing I would say in the keys of inclusion is it's very important to search for common ground. It may sound counterintuitive to say we build these very diverse teams and then we want to search for common ground. But in fact, we all want to rally around something. It could be the mission of the organization.

It could be a project that we're working on. It could be a colleague who's stressed and we're trying to help that colleague. I had a situation with a very good friend of mine from university. And when marriage equality was being talked about in the U.S.

15 years ago, it was a very important topic to me because as a member of the LGBTQ community and as somebody who was in a long-term relationship relationship, Access to marriage was important for us and for my help, myself and my to-be husband.

But for my friend who's straight and has four kids and he didn't see the, he wasn't interested in marriage equality, which at first took me very much by surprise. And we had a discussion about it and I said, why is this important? It's important.

I believe to everyone, because it has to do with people being able to love and build relationships and family and support structure with people that they love. And so we came to this point of common ground because that's what that was important to him too. Whether we called it straight marriage or gay marriage was not the issue. So I think it's critically important to search for common ground.

The power of a leader's voice goes beyond, I think, what we can imagine. I have had many situations in my career where individuals who worked for me or with whom I worked or we worked on projects together would mimic back to me things that I had said to them that had an impact on them, either an impact on them personally or their career or the work they were doing.

And those are things I don't even remember saying. And as leaders in an organization at whatever level, don't underestimate the power of your voice and your presence. And in my six years at Moet Hennessey, working on launching and working on diversity, equity, and inclusion.
