The Inclusion Edge: Confidently create a culture that celebrates diversity and belonging

Author:

Mary McGuire

How is your book helping others?

The Inclusion Edge is a handbook for business leaders who have little or no exposure to the experience of minority groups, but are committed to making a difference in their organisations and beyond. The reason leader’s struggle so much with DE&I is because the backlash of doing things wrong is very real. Yet we know that real change can only come when those very same leader’s take decisive action to address the inequalities that exist.
The Inclusion Edge offers a pragmatic framework for busy leaders who want to integrate DE&I into their business priorities, but don't know where to start. The Inclusion Edge will show you how to:
• Develop bias awareness and open your eyes to the many ways inequality exists in society
• Embody the values of Belonging and nourish the green shoots of Inclusion to increase team and business performance.
• Leverage your own experience of exclusion to feel empathy towards those whose lives are affected by it every day.
• Learn to be open and curious
