LGBTQ Inclusivity and Language in the Workplace

Using Artificial Intelligence to Promote Diversity
Artificial intelligence has had some justifiably bad press recently. Some of the worst stories have been about systems that exhibit racial or gender bias in facial recognition applications or in evaluating people for jobs, loans, or other considerations. 1 One program was routinely recommending longer prison sentences for blacks than for whites on the basis of the flawed use of

Sexual Orientation and Leadership Suitability: How Being a Gay Man Affects Perceptions of Fit in Gender-Stereotyped Positions

Access to sustainable employment and productive training: workplace participation strategies for Indigenous employees
