So what does inclusion really mean? Inclusion is the act of embracing people no matter the personal differences. These differences can be race, gender, a disability, or any variance of traits between yourself and another person. Inclusion is important in our everyday lives and there is always something we can do to become more inclusive.

How can you become more inclusive? Inclusion and kindness go hand in hand. When you lead with love and kindness for others you are already showing signs of inclusiveness. We have broken down this process of becoming inclusive into 3 steps. The first step is to lead with kindness. The second step is initiating. The third step is consistency. For more information and examples of these steps see “Delivering Kindness”.
