“When we talk about diversity, equity and inclusion, I always wonder where’s the seat for young people to engage their voices?”
AiLun Ku, The Opportunity Network:
“We work with … young people from underrepresented backgrounds to [help them] build the life they want. I always say building the life that they want, because that is steeped in agency and steeped in power.”
Morten Enggaard Rasmussen, Novozymes:
“I have a call for anyone in here: look at the company, look at your leader. … If they are not diverse, if they are not looking for inclusivity they don’t deserve you. Move on. There are plenty of opportunities.”
Morten Enggaard Rasmussen, Novozymes:
“When you need to have … change, you need everyone to participate. You need everyone, different kinds of skill sets, different kinds of thinking.”
AiLun Ku, The Opportunity Network:
“What young people are looking for is this kind of balance between flexibility and autonomy; the ability to grow, to advance, that you’re investing in them.”
Morten Enggaard Rasmussen, Novozymes:
“There’s a point where we need to start … calling out what is good and what is bad leadership.”
AiLun Ku, The Opportunity Network:
“If you’re making a commitment without action… We know, we see it, our young people definitely see it … It’s important that you follow through on those commitments and you show them (young people) and you demonstrate it.”
