The NHL got it wrong. For as long as I can remember, NHL teams have worn alternate warm-up jerseys for theme nights: camo jerseys on Armed Forces Appreciation Night, pink jerseys on Hockey Fights Cancer Night, and colorful jerseys on Pride Night. After the game, the jerseys are auctioned off, raising thousands of dollars for the associated causes. Last year, several players chose not to wear their team's Pride Night warm-up jerseys. For some, it went against personal or religious beliefs. Others feared their families would face retribution or even violence in their home country. While I don't agree with players (or anyone, for that matter) who refuse to support diverse causes, I can't pretend to understand the complex geopolitical issues at play, especially in a league where 30% of the players are not North American. I can only assume their decision came from a place of misunderstanding or genuine safety concern—not one of hate or intolerance. Instead of allowing these players to opt out of wearing themed jerseys or warm-ups altogether, this year, the NHL banned all alternate jerseys completely. Uniforms and gear for games, warm-ups, and official team practices cannot be altered to reflect, support, or acknowledge theme nights. They even banned rainbow-colored stick tape. I understand the NHL doesn't want negative publicity each time a player refuses to wear a Pride jersey. But this decision brings far more negative publicity to the league. It hurts the league, the teams, the players, the fans, and the entire LGBTQIA+ community (not to mention the other groups who have benefited from theme nights at NHL games). This policy is backward. This policy lets the small majority win instead of celebrating, encouraging, and respecting the diversity of our country and the world. I will always love the NHL (especially my hometown, Washington Capitals), but this policy is an embarrassment to the game. #pride #lgbtqia #lgbt #lgbtqrights #lgbtqiacommunity #hockey #sports

🌟 Unique Needs, Diverse Recognition: A Lesson from Molson's PWHL Campaign Hey LinkedIn fam! The brilliance behind Molson's PWHL campaign isn't just in its support for women's hockey—it's a vivid reminder of the diverse needs and recognition avenues in our communities and workplaces. This initiative highlights that acknowledging and celebrating differences is crucial. It teaches us the value of adapting our strategies to recognize everyone’s unique contributions and needs. In the corporate world, this means creating environments where diversity is not just seen but celebrated, and where every individual feels valued for their unique perspectives. Let's take inspiration from Molson's playbook: innovate with empathy, champion diversity, and tailor recognition to uplift everyone. It’s about making a meaningful impact that resonates on a personal level. Here's to bringing these lessons into our daily practices, fostering a culture of inclusion and appreciation that goes beyond the conventional. #Inclusion #Diversity #CorporateCulture #Innovation #Empathy

From the desk of Dr. Gerilyn Davis: Happy Friday! I hope that you feel triumphant on this first day of the Olympics. In my daily assessment, I am feeling extremely progressive. I mentioned to a potential client that inclusion is like a sprint within a marathon. It can be fast-moving and moments of steadiness. Regardless, we keep moving. More than anything, we can measure our success. Here are some options to do so. --- INCLUSIVE COUNT: We count how often we talk about inclusion. The counting gives a gauge of attention. --- INCLUSIVE RATING: Reflect by scoring the experience on an easy 1 – 10 scale to grasp how we are experiencing inclusion. --- INCLUSIVE SCORING: Now add up the rating of each day to score yourself. More than anything, celebrate the small wins. Overall, we can gauge our inclusive behaviors and reward ourselves to keep going. In a sense, we create our own mini-Inclusive Olympics. Enjoy the weekend! #joyofinclusion #inclusionexpansion #inclusionincludesyoutoo #InclusionontheSlopes #SWORDInclusionSystem #PhaseFiveDailyAssessment

🏒🌟 Embracing Diversity: Transforming Hockey into a Game for Everyone! 🌈🥅 Hockey isn't just a sport—it's a community, a culture, and a passion that unites us all. But to truly thrive and evolve, it must be inclusive and welcoming to everyone, regardless of race, gender, or background. Here's why diversity and inclusion are crucial in hockey: 1️⃣ Expanding Perspectives: Embracing diversity in hockey brings a wealth of different perspectives, experiences, and talents to the game. By including individuals from various backgrounds, we enrich the sport and foster creativity and innovation on and off the ice. 2️⃣ Building Stronger Teams: Inclusion strengthens teams by fostering a sense of belonging and unity. When players feel valued and respected for who they are, they perform better, communicate more effectively, and collaborate seamlessly to achieve shared goals. 3️⃣ Growing the Fanbase: A diverse and inclusive hockey community attracts fans from all walks of life. When people see themselves represented in the sport, whether on the ice or in leadership roles, they're more likely to become passionate supporters and ambassadors for the game. 4️⃣ Creating Role Models: Diversity in hockey creates opportunities for individuals to see themselves reflected in the players, coaches, and leaders they look up to. Representation matters, and by showcasing a diverse array of role models, we inspire the next generation to pursue their dreams fearlessly. 5️⃣ Driving Social Change: Hockey has the power to drive positive social change and break down barriers. By promoting diversity and inclusion within the sport, we send a powerful message of equality and acceptance that extends far beyond the rink. As players, coaches, fans, and stakeholders, it's up to all of us to champion diversity and inclusion in hockey. Together, we can create a game that celebrates the unique talents and contributions of every individual. 🏒✨ #HockeyForAll #DiversityandInclusion #GameChanger #UnityOnIce What steps do you think we can take to make hockey more inclusive and diverse? Share your thoughts and ideas in the comments below! Let's keep the conversation going. 👇

As we celebrate Black Inclusion Week (13-19 May), I want to emphasise the importance of having these crucial conversations. Recently, I met with a Black Employee Network, and we discussed the impact of code-switching on our career progression. For those unfamiliar with the term, I describe code-switching on page 56 of my book, Let Go Leadership, as "adapting the presentation of oneself in ways that disconnect one from the cultural or racial stereotypes of their group." Reflecting on the importance of fostering inclusive organisations that encourage and nurture authentic leadership, I have a question for you: Are you creating environments that invite diversity or marginalize it? To explore this further, I encourage you to read Let Go Leadership. https://lnkd.in/etWVHCxF #EmpoweredForChange #BuildingTogether #Diversity
