The modern working environment has been elevated substantially since the days of "Mad Men", largely in alignment with our expanding cultural sensibilities. But even in the last couple decades that has not always been the case, and particularly in technical fields that have leaned heavily to the male gender. In this episode Brian Comerford and Nick Lozano are joined by Shirley Hayes to discuss the strengths that a plurality of perspectives brings to the workplace, and the creativity that can be fostered with an inclusive office environment.
