@9FYHML61yr1Y
I depends which type of company, mostly yes though.
@99M5L862yrs2Y
I don't think it is too important, and that it should be only mandatory for those companies that it is relevant for.
@9BJBT222yrs2Y
No, diversity training as it is now is sometimes ineffective. Effective methods should be established first.
