Episode Highlights:
00:57 - It's imperative that people understand that our workplaces are more diverse than ever before in our history. And that is not going to change and we're not going to go back to the way it was. And so, if we accept that our workplaces are diverse, we must accept that people are different and have different expectations around what respect is for them. And if we find out what those are and we meet those expectations, we're likely to have a respectful environment.
