Diversity in Corporate Leadership

McKinsey & Company has been publishing a "Women Matter" series, exploring the benefits that gender diversity bring to the workplace.

One of McKinsey's recommendations, is to educate men on the corporate challenges that women face. More than 50% of men surveyed were unaware that women have more difficulties than men. Of those who are unaware of the additional barriers women face, 2/3rds believe that diversity measures are unfair to men. [source]

Therefore, among McKinsey's recommendations for improving gender diversity in business is to educate all employees, from the very top to the brand newest hire, on the importance of gender diversity to a successful business. [source]

The Web of Connection

One of the things I observed as an undergrad, was how the different groups of people that I met interacted with each other.  The ways in which the SCA crowd intersected with the RPG gaming crowd, and so on.  And each person also brought unique aspects to the community, as I also went to classes and did other things where most of my friends were not.

I started to see each activity or event as a node, and the people connected all the different nodes together, to form a web of community.
