Description
The impact of diversity on finances makes perfect sense when you think of the workforce like a toolbox: Every tool has a purpose and design that makes it optimal for certain jobs. If your toolbox is full of only Phillip’s head screwdrivers, you’ll never be able to work with a flat head screw ... Because we currently have a racially homogeneous workforce, we have one that doesn’t employ the full set of skills, experiences and perspectives needed for a full toolbox.In the audio version of "The business case for diversity in IR" (Fall 2021 IR Quarterly, pp. 16-17), authors Keith M. Horton, MD, FSIR, and Derek L. West, MD, MS, explain why diversity in your practice is not only a moral decision, but a financial one that will strengthen your interventional radiology practice's bottom line.Read the article (including references and recommended reading).Contact us with your ideas and questions, or read more about about interventional radiology in IR Quarterly magazine or SIR's Patient Center.(c) Society of Interventional Radiology.Support the show
