Von der hinteren Coverseite

Many companies have made public commitments to Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion (DE&I) yet struggle to meet their DE&I goals. Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion has to be more than theoretical. The lack of practical, real-world advice for DE&I professionals, CEOs, and HR practitioners has resulted in poor outcomes, little change, and frustration with their diversity efforts.

In Diversity and Inclusion Matters:Tactics and Tools to Inspire Equity and Game-Changing Performance, award-winning diversity leader, Jason R. Thompson, delivers a groundbreaking and hands-on roadmap of how to build and implement a leading diversity program that achieves its goals and creates organizational change. The book walks readers through weekly, and even daily, tactics to build an effective DE&I program. The practical and concrete steps are accompanied by advice on what data to collect and what metrics to measure, as well as how best to analyze and assess the data.

Readers will learn how to choose effective and achievable diversity and inclusion goals for their organization given their current resources and how to measure the impact of the programs they implement. The CAPE process developed by Jason will give you a practical tool to achieve your DE&I goals. Among other actionable guidance, the author describes how to manage and lead a diversity council, the order in which to establish programs to ensure the success of each subsequent piece of the puzzle, and how to get early buy-in—and a long-term commitment—from a CEO.

This book includes real-world experiences and examples shared via Jason’s unique storytelling and often-quoted “Jason-isms.” You will learn from Jason’s successes and failures thus saving you time and maximizing your efforts.

Ideal for CEOs and other executives, human resources leaders, and recruiters in any industry. Diversity and Inclusion Matters is required reading for anyone who seeks to help their organization build a strong, durable, and resilient workforce that takes full advantage of the vibrant diversity in our world.
