The way we lead is changing, and diversity is one of the driving forces behind this transformation. However, for many HR and talent acquisition leaders, managing diverse perspectives, cultures, and backgrounds may still feel challenging. Leading with diversity is about embracing differences, creating belonging, and driving success.
