Diversity and inclusion is a hot topic within organizations, yet despite decades of efforts being made to address this issue, little progress has been made. Setting quotas or changing legislation alone is not the answer. This book provides readers with a new, holistic and tactical perspective on the subject of diversity. It identifies a range of social, biological, psychological, cultural and evolutionary factors that contribute to how we are naturally inclined to think about ourselves and others, how group dynamics operate, and the impact of difference and power. The authors propose a series of six original steps to instigate the fundamental psychological and cultural shift that is needed to create more efficient, ethical, equal and diverse environments. Anyone responsible for increasing the diversity of their organization will gain value from this forward-looking, solutions-focused book.
