Sofie van der Meulen shares her perspective on diversity and inclusion based on her own experiences. She discusses how to make the workplace a more inclusive and diverse environment by promoting a life-enriching, human-friendly approach.

In her speech and on one of her slides the lyrics below is used:

The perception that divides you from her
Is a lie
For some reason you never asked why
This is not a black and white world
You can't afford to believe in your side

This is not a black and white world
To be alive
I say the colours must swirl
And I believe
That maybe today
We will all get to appreciate
Yes we will all get to appreciate

The beauty of gray
