Pursuing diversity, equity, and inclusion is hard work. It seems like no effort is ever good enough. In this last episode of Engineering the Future: Diversity Dialogues, we’ll share what success stories look like.
At the end of every previous episode, our host Wanda Sigur asked each guest for two stories. She asked them to share a time when the diversity of a team they were working with resulted in an enhanced solution, something better than they’d have otherwise. And she asked them for an example of when a diverse team helped the members of that team understand and appreciate the people they were working with. Our distinguished guests came through with wonderful, inspiring stories from their lives and the lives of those before them.
