feel they “belong” and are “uniquely” valued. IQ is based on the idea that when inclusive behaviors are repeated and reinforced in an organization, thus becoming habits, the culture becomes increasingly inclusive and employees are engaged. Inclusive intelligence
is built on the habits of being fair, open, cooperative, supportive, and empowering. If you do not intentionally, deliberately, and proactively include, you unintentionally exclude.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
