In today's business environment, support for diversity in the workplace is not unusual. As demographics rapidly evolve and customer preferences change, efforts to build diversity and inclusion are more common. Data confirms that organizations making the investment in diversity are resulting in stronger returns, impacting growth and ultimately increasing the bottom line.
