Effective tools to increase diversity, equity, and inclusion at every level in your organization

In the Impactful Inclusion Toolkit: 52 Activities to Help You Learn and Practice Inclusion Every Day in the Workplace, distinguished inclusion strategist Yvette Steele delivers a practical collection of inclusive behaviors designed to cultivate inclusion in the workplace. Staunch in the belief that inclusion is everybody’s job that anybody can do, the author prescribes weekly doses of strategies, dos, and don’ts to help launch, navigate, and maintain a personal and organizational journey of inclusion. Her unique perspective empowers individuals to lead inclusion where they stand within the organization, even when they lack positional power. Drawn from decades of encounters with exclusion, Yvette provides clarity on what it takes to build inclusion into day-to-day interactions. We are beyond awareness of the systems and beliefs that divide us. Now is the time to stop talking and start working toward equitable outcomes.
