Women in Quantum | It's June. It's Pride Month.
Hi everyone,
"Diversity is a fact, but inclusion is a choice we make every day. As leaders, we have to put out the message that we embrace, and not just tolerate, diversity." -Nellie Borrero
I read this quote and reflected on the topic of inclusion. I think all of us have felt left out at times and inclusion is a powerful way to win allies and mend fences and promote diversity. I encourage all of you to think how you can include someone and make a difference today and everyday. Women in Quantum is all about inclusion, everyone is welcome to join us.
June is Pride Month. Let's all fight bigotry and hatred and stand in solidarity with the LGBTQ community. The world is a much better place with diverse outlooks, inclusion and no judgement. We are much stronger all together than as individuals.
I am going to leave the news off today's newsletter, and, instead, ask you to reach out to someone, include someone, acknowledge someone and help make someone's world a better place.
Many thanks,
Denise
