“Is it $70 trillion in foregone economic output? Or $23 trillion in USD GDP? Or $172 trillion in lifetime earnings? No matter how you measure it, lack of diversity, equity and inclusion limits national economies and reduces GDP.”- @BankofAmerica report. https://t.co/BIuVoguoos

"The pandemic could cost the average American woman close to $600,000 in lifetime income, according to McKinsey & Company. And those lost earnings rise to an average of $1.2 million for women in leadership roles." https://t.co/Abi8emOKG1

It appeared that remains of his lunch were left on it, making it useless for the evening broadcast. I responded that it "wasn't in my job description," and left him to figure it out. I don't know if that helped or hurt my career, but I do know I never regretted it. (2/3)
