Tackle racial bias and discrimination at your company and create a representative and diverse leadership team
In Inclusion Revolution: The Essential Guide to Dismantling Racial Inequity in the Workplace, workplace strategist and C-suite executive Daisy Auger-Domínguez delivers a timely, inspirational, and practical exploration of why mainstream efforts at diversity improvement tend to fail and what you can do today to successfully create a diverse and representative leadership team at your company.
In the book, the author explains her four-step process of reflection, visualization, action, and persistence, and walks you through how to use research-based strategies to promote diversity. This hands-on toolkit for leaders and people professionals will show you how to:
- Achieve the benefits—including higher revenues and more satisfied employees—enjoyed by high-performing, diverse companies
- Fruitfully address the complex and fraught issues of race, power, and exclusion at your firm
- Transform the seemingly intractable problems of racial bias and discrimination into realistically solvable issues you can begin to address immediately
Perfect for managers, directors, executives, entrepreneurs, founders, and other business leaders, Inclusion Revolution is also a must-read for people officers and human resources professionals at companies of any size and in any industry.
