60 tips for being a leader on inclusivity, creativity, and diversity

If you want to be a leader when it comes to inclusivity, creativity, and diversity, take advantage of the collective wisdom of industry veterans. Game and tech industry leaders have provided 60 tips (which you can find below) and started a Leadership for Diversity website to further educate people about diversity. With the events of the past week in Silicon Valley, these tips are clearly timely.

Megan Gaiser, the former head of Nancy Drew gamemaker Her Interactive and principal of consulting firm Contagious Creativity, and other game industry leaders organized the tips as well as our panel, Bucking the Status Quo, at our recent GamesBeat Summit 2017 conference. The panel highlighted the things that company leaders can do to take advantage of diversity as a business opportunity, rid the workforce of unconscious bias, invest in leadership transformation, and inspire creativity.
