leadership ought to look & behave like your stakeholders

Diversity decisions based on gender or ethnicity is shallow, counterproductive and stupid.

stop just hiring your friends & friends of friends.......

Diversity experts? Where does that degree come from?

Fire generation narcissist!

What a garbage rag.

Creates nothing but resentment and tension between people. End this insanity.

the best course of action is to fire the diversity experts.
