“The 10 Lenses event was a tremendous support to Charlotte’s ongoing community engagement efforts in support of being a more inclusive and equitable community. It was highly effective in engaging leaders across the business, public, nonprofit and educational sectors in considering both their personal perspective on issues of inclusion and equity and the community “culture” of Charlotte. Individuals are still using the “10 Lenses.”

In the 10 Lenses, Mark explains that people view diversity through different lenses, and that understanding these unique lenses is the key to bringing different groups together.
