So I gave #cnnnye a try this year with @Andy and @andersoncooper instead of the traditional show and I have to say, it was WAY better. @AndraDayMusic was amazing and then The Andys (I’m making it a thing for 2021) were witty and funny and awkward together like any great couple.
The day after the last election, lost productivity cost companies $700 Million. However this election shakes out, you may need help navigating this conversation with your employees. #election2020 #courageousconversations #thediversitymovement https://t.co/nw8Z6ONZaz
