Awareness is an underrated superpower! A wonderful moment of inclusion to never forget. A reminder that the true measure of a person is how they treat those who can do nothing for them. #BeKind #Respect ‪#worklife #motivation #FutureofWork #Leadership #Diversity #DiversityandInclusion

Leadership isn't defined by title. It's about fostering an environment where everyone feels included and valued. Observation, awareness, and compassion are essential qualities that can elevate anyone to a leadership role. #Leadership #DiversityandInclusion #BeKind

Empathy and compassion are always the foundation of humanity.

💢 There cannot be true diversity, equity, inclusion and belonging - as well as empowerment - if people continue excluding Muslim women, specifically veiled women, from participation in society. Women wearing the veil have been continuously made feel invisible and have had to fight their way through to achieve things in life, often at the expense of their mental health, because the fight is unfair, biased, prejudiced. If we talk about empowerment but deny access to it to a group of people, we aren't advocating for genuine empowerment but are promoting exclusivity and supremacy instead. If we are talking about equality for all but leave out a group of people - veiled Muslim women in particular - because we either do not understand their way of life or do not hold any regard for them - we aren't truly advocating for equality. In the context of current events we cannot have a conversation about antisemitism if we also do not address islamophobia. Both are horrible, but if you only focus on one and leave out the other, you are not being inclusive. And people tend to mostly ignore islamophobia because they tend to disregard the most affected demographic (veiled women). If we continue to promote one group of people over the other, we won't be making a big change in society at all - but will be creating gaps and only furthering already existing isolation. For years now Muslim women in general, and specifically veiled women, have been told to stay in their niche. But guess what ... that niche grew so big it's spilling over. We are certainly not going away and certainly aren't going to stay silent when we see injustice. But we have a message to every other DEIB advocate - you either include us already or take a careful long look at yourself. Because you are lying to the world by pretending you care for everyone. There's no polite or politically correct way of saying this. If your advocacy doesn't improve conditions for marginalized groups in society, Muslim women being one of those groups, your advocacy is a fraud. These women never asked to be outcast. In fact, all we've ever wanted is to be acknowledged and to belong. By denying us our right to visibility and representation, you are rejecting everyone else who doesn't fit the mold. Either we are all in this together, or we are going to call it for what it is - a lie. © 2008-2024 Camilla Stein #Islamophobia #deib #inclusivity #equality #participation #visibility #empowerment #humanconnection #muslimwomen #islamintheworld #antisemitism #thinkaboutit #womensuppprtingwomen #hypewomen #newleadership #leadershiplessons #leadership

Today, ~2 billion people around the world are observing Eid-ul-Fitr, which marks the end of the holy month of Ramadan. On a day traditionally celebrated with joyous feasts, one group of people that will not be celebrating in the same way are the 2.2 million people of Gaza, at least 85% of which are displaced and 50% of which are experiencing starvation, with the other 50% in food crisis or emergency. In addition to the humanitarian catastrophe, the conflict also represents an environmental catastrophe. A study published in December by a team of researchers from Queen Mary University and Lancaster University in the UK and the Climate and Community Project in the US, attempted to estimate the climate impact of the war, including: 💥 6,990 kilotonnes CO2 equivalent (KtCO2e) emissions related to Israeli defense spending based on its 2019 military budget of US$20.3 billion. In February, Israel passed an amended budget for 2023-2024 that saw defence spending increase 85% over pre-war levels to $32.6 billion. On this basis, emissions associated with Israeli military spending would equate to 11,215 KtCO2e, roughly the size of North Macedonia’s Scope 1 emissions. 💥 281 KtCO2e in emissions directly associated with the conflict during the first 60 days, including fighter jets, supply planes, artillery, tanks and vehicles. If we extend that analysis for the full 185 days of the conflict so far, direct emissions would equate to 866 KtCO2e. 💥 30,000 ktCO2e for reconstruction based on 100,000 buildings destroyed in the first 60 days. As of mid-March, the number of buildings estimated to have been destroyed totalled 157,200, which would increase the emissions associated with reconstruction to 47,160 ktCO2e. In aggregate, emissions associated with these three categories would total more than 59,241 ktCO2e, roughly equivalent to Portugal’s emissions. And the war rages on . . . The researchers were quick to admit the limitations of the study. Emissions from military operations remain under-analysed; according to the UNEP’s 2023 Emissions Gap report, military emissions are “insufficiently accounted” for by the UNFCCC. Using the “mortality cost of carbon” metric developed by Columbia University researcher Daniel Bressler in 2021, these emissions would result in ~13,360 excess deaths between now and 2100. That still pales in comparison to the more than 33,000 lives and counting that have been lost in the conflict in the past seven months. This Eid, let us all pray, regardless of our religious affiliations, for a permanent end to the hostilities. Even better, let us actively call on our governments to end the hostilities.

A great leader becomes great not just through their achievements but by including everyone and making each person feel valued. Grealish's gesture reminds us that the true measure of a person lies in how they treat those who can do nothing for them. It's these small, powerful moments of inclusion that leave lasting impacts and elevate one's leadership to greatness. Remember to take care of each and every single person in your team. Great share Dr. Marcell Vollmer #Leadership #Empathy #Inclusiveness
