MMRadio Jennifer Brown - The Monday Morning Memo

Jennifer Brown sizes up business on how well they address today’s ever-increasing demand for inclusive workplaces. Are you (1.) unaware, (2.) aware, (3.) active, or (4.) an advocate? Do you want to create a productive work environment for every employee? Google, Johnson & Johnson, IBM, Disney, and Coca-Cola have all asked for her help, but you don’t need to be a FORTUNE 500 CEO to benefit from her insights. All you need to do is join Jennifer and roving reporter Rotbart for a brief soirée right here, right now.

“Two weeks earlier, I had enlisted in the United States Air Force. Why? — one might fairly ask. Well, for precisely the same reason that 90 percent of all enlistees join the military, which is to say, I was at a point in my life when I didn’t know what else to do.

There may have been a few times in our nation’s history when there were ‘the heroic men and women who sacrifice so much to keep America safe and preserve our freedom,’ (in the days and weeks following the attacks on Pear Harbor and the World Trade Center, for example), but I have to say that in my four years in the air force, including posting at an army base in Korea; and during numerous conversations with both veterans and those on active duty, I never once heard a serviceman or -woman claim that he or she had joined up in order to preserve American values and keep their countrymen free.”

- Tom Robbins, Tibetan Peach Pie, p. 109
