How to Be an Inclusive Leader by Jennifer Brown

We know why diversity is important, but how do we drive real change at work? Diversity and inclusion expert Jennifer Brown provides a step-by-step guide for the personal and emotional journey we must undertake to create an inclusive workplace where everyone can thrive. Human potential is unleashed when we feel like we belong. That's why inclusive workplaces experience higher engagement, performance, and profits. But the reality is that many people still feel unable to bring their true selves to work. In a world where the talent pool is becoming increasingly diverse, it's more important than ever for leaders to truly understand how to sup-port inclusion. Drawing on years of work with many leading organizations, Brown shows what leaders at any level can do to spark real change. She guides listeners through the Inclusive Leader Continuum, a set of four developmental stages: unaware, aware, active, and advocate. Brown describes the hallmarks of each stage, the behaviors and mind-sets that inform it, and what readers can do to keep progressing. Whether you're a powerful CEO or a new employee without direct reports, you can take actions that can drastically change the day-to-day reality for your col-leagues and the trajectory of your organization. Brown lays out simple steps to help you understand your role, boost your self-aware-ness, take action, and become a better version of yourself in the process. This audiobook will meet you where you are and provide a road map to create a workplace of greater mutual understanding where everyone's talents can shine.
