      • The common goal of the global workforce: appreciating the humanness of each person

      • The challenges he has faced in building his legacy
      • Terry’s strategy for overcoming these challenges
      • The important role of diversity and inclusion initiatives
      • The differences between diversity — “being invited to the dance” and inclusion — actually “being asked to dance”
      • Terry’s vision of the workplace of the future
      • The factors that shaped Terry’s life and his desire to build a legacy
      • How, when we remember we are just one human being working with another human being, our commonalities become more important than our differences
