When most companies are trying to leverage cognitive diversity (разнообразие мышления) at work, we need inclusive leaders to help people of different backgrounds and psychological mindsets get along and work together as a unit. This will only happen if the leader is capable of taking other peoples’ points of view in order to not just tolerate, but also embrace different perspectives and values.
