The Covid-19 crisis is an opportunity for corporate leaders to assess what they value, how they lead, and how their teams work together. How can we proactively reimagine our future, to shed old priorities, choices, habits, and exclusionary behaviors and clear the slate for new, better ones that benefit business and people? How can we design a more equitable, inclusive, and fulfilling workplace in which people can belong, contribute, and thrive?
