We all know that treating our colleagues with respect is an essential element of a good corporate culture.
But we often forget that showing respect to the communities where we work can also send a strong message to our employees about what we truly value.

This is a great framework: help yourself by helping others.
And finding ways to help others is not difficult right now.
