Where do good ideas come

from? That is simple…from

differences. Creativity comes

from unlikely juxtapositions.

The best way to maximize

differences is to mix ages,

cultures and disciplines.-Nicolas Negroponte, founder MIT Media Lab

origins of

good ideas.

inclusion:

The things that you do

intentionally and deliberately

to include additional

diversity in a group or

process.

inclusion:“I define connection as the energy that

exists between people when they feel

seen, heard, and valued; when they can

give and receive without judgment; and

when they derive sustenance and

strength from the relationship.”

-Brene Brown

Outcome disparities often

linked to social disparities.

homophily: the tendency of

individuals to associate and bond with

similar others. The presence of

homophily has been discovered in a

vast array of network studies. More

than 100 studies have observed

homophily in some form or another

and they establish that similarity

breeds connection. These include age,

gender, class, and organizational role.

a quick

exercise…

Page 60: Inclusive networks (2014 Forum on Workplace Inclusion)

social network analysis

From time to time people

discuss important matters with

other people. Looking back over

the past six months, who are the

people with whom you

discussed matters important to

you?

Page 61: Inclusive networks (2014 Forum on Workplace Inclusion)

social network analysis

Consider the people you

communicate with in order to get

your work done. Of all the

people you have communicated

with during the last six months,

who has been the most

important for getting your work

done?

Page 62: Inclusive networks (2014 Forum on Workplace Inclusion)

social network analysis

Consider an important project or

initiative that you are involved in.

Consider the people who would

be influential for getting it

approved or obtaining the

resources you need. Who would

you talk to, to get the support

you need?

Page 63: Inclusive networks (2014 Forum on Workplace Inclusion)

social network analysis

Who do you socialize with?

(spending time with people after

work hours, visiting one another

at home, going to social events,

out for meals and so on) Over

the last 6 months, who are the

main people with whom you

have socialized informally?

What do you have?

What do you have a

lot of?

What do you not

have?

What do you need to

do differently?

Page 66: Inclusive networks (2014 Forum on Workplace Inclusion)

Who do you discuss new

ideas with?

Who do you turn to for help?

Who do you get the most

valuable information from?

Who do you trust to keep

your best interests in mind?

Page 68: Inclusive networks (2014 Forum on Workplace Inclusion)

I understand this person’s

knowledge and skills.

If I ask this person for help, I

know they will actively engage.

I would be more effective if I had

greater access to this person.

When you interact with this

person how does it impact your

energy level?
