We need to think differently about employee engagement in the new reality.

It’s pretty unfortunate that women who hold full time-time jobs still earn 79 cents for every dollar that men with full-time jobs earn ( U.S. Census Burea u). This gap widens as we traverse race and ethnicity – African-American and Latina women earn 64 cents and 56 cents respectively, for every dollar that white, non-Hispanic men earn.
