Henry Ford, chairman of the Ford Motor Company, was undoubtedly a pioneer, brilliant inventor, and insightful leader renowned not only for his life-changing innovations but also words of wisdom, which included, “When everything seems to be going against you, remember that the airplane takes off against the wind, not with it.” So it may be surprising to learn that as one of the first CEOs to implement a formal approach to managing corporate cultural diversity in the early 1900s, he encouraged less rather than more to achieve a cohesive and productive workforce.
