In these current times where we have an ongoing debate about various topical issues including Me too, Black Lives Matter, Brexit, Working From Home, and now of course whether Covid vaccinations should be compulsory for return to work, it’s vital that as business leaders we do not stifle such debate but that we do not allow it to impact on our workplaces.

I came across this article from Forbes which explore these challenges, granted from a USA perspective, but it does discuss how business leaders can help bring people who have very different perspectives together so they can work in unity and harmony with each other.

It’s worth a read if only to be reminded of that great quote from Maya Angelou:

“I’ve learned that people will forget what you said, people will forget what you did, but people will never forget how you made them feel.”
