How To Inspire The Art of Belonging | Laura Ramirez | TEDxPleasantGrove |
|
Laura Ramirez transformed a negative childhood experience into her life's work.
Laura’s elementary school teacher taught her that speaking Spanish in class would earn her a trip to the principal’s office for reprimand. It is from this early childhood experience of intolerance that her lifelong dedication to diversity and inclusion (D&I) emerged. Laura works tirelessly to unleash the power of D&I by building bridges, growing networks, transforming workplace cultures, and speaking engagements. Laura’s work and leadership have been recognized in USA Today, D-CEO Magazine, and Latino Style Magazine. Laura's talk helps you to drive change through the art of belonging.
