“You Belong Here” is a statement that every person longs to hear. It’s the assurance that frees us to face our future because others have got our back. It’s also one of the greatest compliments we can receive. It means we are part of a community that celebrates us as one of their own—with all the love and connection that comes with that status.
In a peri-pandemic world where every day brings unpredictable shocks and surprises, the chief role of a leader is to make people feel safe to be their best and take bold risks to win.

You Belong Here gives you the tools and strategies, backed by science, to create an environment where others flourish so you will too.
