As we’re warming up for next week’s New Diversity Summit– today let me tell you about the Diversity Icebreaker tool.
Diversity Icebreaker is a team development product developed in Norway by psychologist Bjørn Ekelund and his company Human Factor AS.
A mechanical engineer friend of mine recommended this tool. she works as designer in a fast growing international high tech company with people from several cultures. She loved this tool!

This is yet another aspect of diversity and inclusive leadership. I hope to see you in next week’s Diversity Summit, don’t forget to register!
That’s it for today. See you tomorrow for a new conscious life conscious leadership flash briefing.
Until then, take care!
Friendly yours, Lise
