I have missed my fair share of events like family gatherings, friends hangouts, and some other small occasions. Now thinking about that time I regret not going to them because I was aggressively looking for a job which entailed tailoring resumés, networking, and a bunch of other things. I ultimately got a job but I feel like I missed out.

When I woke up on the floor, my coworker told me I was out for 3 mins. The manager was belittling the situation and threatening my position

DE&I is now a core leadership competency. If you are managing diverse talent, it’s important to understand what the term “privilege” means within a DE&I context so you can lead your team to higher levels of inclusivity+develop optimal strategies for solutioning around team issues/challenges. Everyone has some aspect of privilege depending upon the context. Privilege means the absence of obstacles/barriers, not necessarily the presence of perks. Though some would say *that* itself is a perk.
