From soothing privacy pods to pronunciation coaching apps, the office space is evolving to become much more inclusive of a broader range of diverse peers and their unique needs. As employers become more conscious of equality within the workplace, more emphasis is being placed on embracing everyone’s differences and offering the most supportive environment possible to help everyone achieve their full potential.
