Narrado por: Gena Cox PhD

Build an inclusive organization from the top down

In this groundbreaking book, organizational psychologist and executive coach Gena Cox delivers the message that humans vary, and human variation is normal. Yet true inclusion that embraces these variations remains elusive in the workplace. That traumatizing state of affairs will continue until executives lead inclusion from the top of the organization. Drawing on psychological science, interviews with corporate leaders, the work of diversity, equity, and inclusion (DE&I) experts, and her own experience in corporate America, Cox goes beyond the business case for diversity and answers the clarion call for human-centered organizational leadership.

Leading Inclusion is not a how to book; it’s a how to be book—one that educates, challenges, and empowers you and your C-suite and board colleagues to lead a diverse workforce effectively. You’ll learn the historical facts that created the racial inequities and systemic injustices that show up in the workplace, even today. Leading Inclusion shows the importance of taking the pulse of all your employees, so you can identify meaningful actions to build an inclusive, respect-first organizational culture.

Your organization can make a visible, tangible difference that employees will see and feel. Leading Inclusion will empower you to change your organization—and America—one employee at a time.

Thank you

I loved this book and learned so much about the current state and strategies to execute to change it. Thank you, Gena for having the courage and strength to share these truths.

Wonderful perspective

I appreciate the author sharing her perspective and enjoyed so much hearing it in her own voice. A great read for leaders wanting to improve and for I-O psychologists interested in helping those leaders.

Actionable, educational, and inspiring

As an activist in the diversity, equity, and inclusion space since 2014, I’ve read and experienced many thought leaders over the years. All illuminate the challenges, yet few offer practical actions that leaders can take.

This book provides insightful and simple steps leaders can take, no matter where they are on their journey to foster more inclusion and engagement among their teams.

I particularly enjoyed the audiobook, Gena’s voice is energizing, yet calm, and full of warmth. Her own personal stories were valuable, vulnerable, and relatable (especially the one about the her neighbor’s flag!)

If you are a leader who wants to increase inclusion in your team, department, or organization, this is the book!

a must read regardless of role and experience level

As a black professional female in the financial field, this book really resonated with me. I wish I had access to the author's wisdom a decade or so ago, but it's never too late, right? thank you so much for sharing your experiences and knowledge with the world, much appreciated!

When CEO’s embrace this message, the world will be a better place

This book is a life changer for the leaders who read it, and an organization changer for the businesses they lead. If you felt unsteady about how to lead a diverse workforce in 2020 please, read this book yesterday. Every executive leader (or aspiring manager or leader) should be reading this.
