Another songwriter is going back to the writing board for using an offensive term in a song.
This story reminded me of the importance of diversity within E&C when creating policies, training and various communications.
A diverse creative team is more likely to notice what could be considered offensive, not simply what is missing. If your company operates in multiple regions and languages, send a copy of your text to locals and native speakers before a mass distribution. And if your company has employee resource groups (ERGs), send them a copy as well. If you have unintentionally committed a faux-pas, they will let you know.
