LEAD MEANINGFUL AND POSITIVE CHANGE WITH THE ULTIMATE GUIDE TO IMPLEMENTING DIVERSITY AND INCLUSION

Of the very few Fortune 500 companies that share diversity data, 72% of their senior executives are white men. And it's been proven that companies with more diverse management teams have nearly 20% higher revenues. Surely YOU don't want to be left behind?

Moral imperatives aside, the business case for diversity and inclusion is clear - they are clear drivers of innovation, profit and employer brand. But how can male white leadership implement this change? There's no denying it's difficult - perhaps you feel left out of the conversation, afraid to make mistakes, and confused about the evolving language of diversity and inclusion.

In this practical guide, leading diversity specialists Felicity Hassan and Suki Sandhu OBE teach you how to create an inclusive environment for your employees and have educated conversations about diversity, illuminating what can sometimes be tricky territory with humour and heart.

Reseñas de la Crítica

Suki Sandhu and Felicity Hassan make a compelling case why creating more diverse and inclusive workplaces is everybody's business. How To Get Your Act Together is a must-read and a powerful call to seize the opportunity that lies in embracing and celebrating people for who they are.

There is no finish line when it comes to creating a more equal, fair and just world. How To Get Your Act Together is a pivotal guide for going from awareness to action in creating a more diverse and inclusive workplace and society.

The magic of diversity is that it protects us from our blind spots and drives innovation - it makes all of us stronger. This book offers ways to help you embrace what people can do and how they think, rather than where they were born and what they look like.

Successful businesses rise on the shoulders of talented employees who are confident bringing their authentic selves to work. This book is a valuable guide for enabling leaders to take action to ensure they can.

Diversity and inclusion are the gateways to stronger teams and better performance. Fact. But it takes a good deal of self-awareness and continuous learning to really ingrain the behavioural changes that are needed. This book holds up a mirror and then guides us - skilfully and persuasively - to the actions we all need to be taking.

Obligatory reading for anyone - straight, white and male or otherwise - who wants to do better but doesn't know where to start.

Hassan and Sandhu present a blueprint for positivity that shows how business interests and operations can dovetail neatly with social change and diversity goals...a study in business transformation, it only requires an open mind and heart from business leader readers who seek to make their workplace better than 'average'.
