Episode Notes

Every person is unique. Together, we are diverse. 
That makes us strong and resilient – both as a society and as a company. Qualities that are more important than ever in these times of crises. Experts agree that diverse companies are more innovative and successful. They can adapt better to new situations and develop more creative solutions. 

But what does diversity mean and how can it be promoted? What is the connection to sustainability? And what are the challenges on the way to become a more diverse workplace? In this episode, we ask questions to which there are many different answers.
