Diverse Teams Rise Above
On a professional level, one of my biggest goals is to continue expanding Seva Global—both in the diversity of our offerings and the diversity of our team.
My youngest daughter attended Indiana University’s Kelley School of Business. While visiting her many years ago, I saw a sign that stopped me in my tracks: Diverse Teams Rise Above.
Companies with more diverse workforces perform better financially. I wholeheartedly believe this. And it was a powerful reminder to “walk the talk” in my own business.
At Seva Global today, our team already represents multiple generations—from age 25 to 66—and a variety of cultural backgrounds including our newest team member from Kenya. I’m proud of that. And I’m also committed to doing more. For me, diversity isn’t a checkbox; it’s a strategic and deeply personal commitment. I truly cherish the different perspectives everyone brings to the table—and I’ve seen firsthand how it strengthens our work with clients.
Does everyone on your team look like you or share similar backgrounds?
