Enhanced descriptions from Syndetics:

Seize the competitive edge, increase innovation, and do right by people through building equity and diversity into your organizational DNA

Studies continuously prove that companies with more diversity in their ranks are more innovative, serve expanded marketplaces, and perform better financially; however, most companies have yet to develop and implement effective diversity, equity, and inclusion initiatives--and pressure to succeed is rapidly increasing.

All Are Welcome takes you beyond the mere practice of hiring a diversity of staff to make inclusion part of the equation, too. The author argues that a strong practice of inclusion is necessary to keep employee retention up, make diversity efforts stick, and cultivate an organization that outperforms its peers. All Are Welcome covers:
Why Diversity, Equity and Inclusion Matters Understanding the Problem: Hiring - Retention = Zero Progress Focusing on Inclusion and Equity A Framework for Change Increasing Workforce Diversity: Hiring and Development Building an Inclusive Workplace: Culture and Accessibility Serving a Diverse Marketplace's Needs: Product, Customers and Marketing Supporting our Communities: Social Impact and Legislative Advocacy Conditions for Success: Courage, Accountability, Respect, and Empowerment The Future of Work and the Role of DEI Pressure to make equity, diversity, and inclusion an organizational priority--on par with the pursuit of profits and growth--is greater today than ever.

All Are Welcome provides the knowledge, insights, and tools you need to make diversity, equity, and inclusion an integral part of your organizational strategy.


Includes bibliographical references and index.
