Organizational psychologist and executive coach Gena Cox asserts that although human variation is normal, true inclusion that embraces these variations is elusive in the workplace. Leading Inclusion, a “how-to-be” book, educates, challenges, and empowers the C-suite and board to lead inclusion from the top of the organization. It’s the only way employees will see the changes they deserve.
Dorie Clark, Wall Street Journal best-selling author, says this book is “an uncommon blend of storytelling, psychological science, and leadership insights.”
A business leader or board director who wants to get past the frustration of minimal progress on “diversity and inclusion initiatives” in their organizations.
