Analogy: Welcome to Holland... Before I go into Diversity, Equity, Inclusion, and Belonging (DEIB) and why it matters from a work context... Introducing you to WELCOME TO HOLLAND. As a parent of a special needs child "Person of Determination", I live the experience every day. Your whole life you dream of going to Italy, you romanticise about it, the day comes you pack your bag and take your flight. Coming into land the stewardess says, "Welcome to Holland, and here you must stay". Meanwhile people are bragging about coming and going to Italy and your thinking, this is where I was supposed to be going... But Holland is still beautiful, you need a new guidebook, a new language, you will meet people you would never of met before... Holland has windmills, tulips and Rembrandt... If you spend your whole life thinking about Italy, you will never appreciate the amazing things about Holland... Now translating this into the workplace... In the ever-evolving corporate world, Diversity, Equity, Inclusion, and Belonging (DEIB) have become more than just buzzwords. They are now integral components of successful business strategies, driving innovation, creativity, and employee satisfaction. One particular focus of DEIB is the empowerment and inclusion of People of Determination, a term that recognizes the abilities and strengths of individuals with disabilities. World Health Organization (WHO) estimates that more than 1 billion people, or about 15% of the global population, live with some form of disability. People of Determination are an often-underrepresented group in the workplace, despite their vast potential and unique perspectives. However, progressive organizations are beginning to see the benefits of a more inclusive approach, recognizing that diversity extends beyond race, gender, or age. It also includes different abilities. Companies that embrace DEIB are not only championing social justice but are also gaining a competitive edge. A diverse workplace fosters a culture of innovation and creativity, as different perspectives challenge the norms and lead to groundbreaking ideas. Equity is an essential aspect of DEIB and it means that everyone, including People of Determination, has equal opportunities to grow professionally. It is about ensuring that the right systems are in place to support the unique needs of all individuals, regardless of their abilities. People should not just be recruited to fill a quota, but to actually have fair pay grades, develop, motivate and retain all employees. Inclusion is about creating an environment where everyone feels valued and included. For People of Determination, this might mean providing reasonable accommodations like assistive technology, flexible working hours, or ergonomic workspaces. #deib #socialjustice #inclusion #itmatters #makeitcount #unconsciousbias #peopleofdetermination #innovations #talentmanagement #equitymatters

If you've yet to learn about Myron Golden, Ph.D., you're missing out. He's one of the most unique thought leaders in the game. He helps authors, coaches and entrepreneurs in a DIFFERENT way than everyone else does. He changes them on the inside. After six days together, here's how he changed me for the better: https://lnkd.in/gZeAP2c6

Cooperatives are such an added value to our communities, ecomomy, cultures, and future. Cooperatives - center people first. What’s good for all involved, pooling resources together to spread the good, what are acts that have sustainable effects, instead of refractive effects, decisions that work to better lives, not strictly profit from them. Coops exist in so many facets of our lives. Whenever possible - choose a Co-op! • Credit Unions (don’t have outside stockholders - members are the collective shareholders - decisions benefit the members/membership) • Grocery Co-ops (like PCC, Central Co-op) • Home care co-ops • Electric Co-ops • Agricultural Co-ops • Retail co-ops (Ace Hardware) • Worker-Owner Co-op (growing trend among businesses where owners are aging out and selling business to employees collectively) • Housing Co-ops …. And much more. Worth celebrating. Wanna have a positive impact - join a Co-op!

Power, water, internet. We need these essential utilities. Congress needs to renew funding for the Affordable Connectivity Program. Kudos National Digital Inclusion Alliance (NDIA) and Community Tech Network (CTN) on this vivid, powerful storytelling. https://lnkd.in/eFXh_E-6
