Publisher's summary

Contemporary and compassionate teachings for building true workplace diversity

In order to create an inclusive working environment, it is important for companies to understand the experiences that diverse employees face in the workplace. Diversity in the Workplace is a guided tour of what it means to be a minority in today's labor force.

Containing 25 real-life interviews, including stories of trailblazers fighting inequality, you'll be exposed to a slice of life you may not have been privy to. This book explores real-world issues in a modern workday dynamic for members of marginalized communities and managers looking to equalize an imbalance. Diversity in the Workplace includes:

  • Exploring intersectionality - learn about the diversity identities shaping disparity at work: race, gender, LGBTQ+, age and ability, and religion and culture.
  • Key takeaways - each section is followed by summaries that encourage reflection and action.
  • Deep dive - learn tips on how to have progressive conversations with colleagues, and build awareness with key terms such as "unconscious bias".

Move toward a more fair and bias-conscious future with Diversity in the Workplace.

Could have been more diverse!

We read this book at work in our Equity, Diversity and Inclusion team and discussed each chapter. Perhaps because I listened to the audio (narrator was pedantic and monotone,) I didn't get as much from the book as I did from the discussions with my colleagues. The religious diversity chapter does is particularly unbalanced. There are no interviews with people in the liquor industry about being judged by their churches for the kind of work they did. There was not enough about various religious identities (including no religion or atheism) and dominant white Christian culture. Still, some interesting perspectives
