For employees to fully contribute to the success of an organization, they must feel they can bring their full selves to work; however, research shows many employees are uncomfortable doing so because of the culture. They are spending valuable energy and time minimizing or managing aspects of their own diversity — of identity, background, experience — in order to conform. Over time, this takes a particular toll on diverse talent — women, people of color, LGBT individuals, people with disabilities — at a time when organizations are struggling to recruit, retain, and develop those same talented individuals. 

To address this alarming pattern, leaders, and those that coach them, must fully commit to engaging and practicing inclusive behaviors that create cultures of belonging in which everyone can thrive.
