Today’s very special Future in Five comes to you from the Taj Mahal in India! Being in front of the Taj Mahal is inspiring, because so many different people from all over the world come together to see this amazing site. This caused me to reflect on the importance of diversity in the workplace. We need to have diversity, because we need different ideas, values, thinking, and different views of the world. Having this diversity is one of the best ways to future proof your organization. It allows your organization to get perspectives that may not be apparent to its existing employee base. It is a good opportunity to identify new opportunities and threats that might be on the horizon. Diversity is a huge part of the future of work. Different cultures, religions, backgrounds, races, all play a huge part in making our organizations more diverse and prepared for the future.
