James MeinckeEstablishing diversity and inclusion in the work environment has proven to boost the performance of sales teams. An inclusive environment encourages knowledge sharing and increases engagement at work. When people are more open towards other cultures and appreciative of each other’s uniqueness, they start to feel safer and valued in their own teams.
Diversity and inclusion have become a more significant social subject. In fact, it has become an essential factor that younger professionals look for when searching for a job. This is why more and more companies are working to build a more inclusive environment for their employees.
