How Companies Can Recommit to Their DEI Goals

After the summer of 2020 in the United States, many organizations
made a big push to increase diversity, equity, and inclusion in
their ranks and operations. But now, many fear that that momentum

University of Virginia Darden School of Business, says it is time
to recommit to these efforts by creating the conditions for all
workers to flourish. She explains four freedoms that organizations
can foster to allow employees to become their best selves — and
even be able to fade into the background when they choose. Roberts
