Recommendation

Andrés Tapia and Alina Polonskaia tap into their experience leading corporate diversity programs in this insightful, practical examination of inclusive leaders: those who help build diverse, inclusive and equitable workplace cultures. Based on millions of leader surveys and years of research, they describe the five traits and disciplines inclusive leaders share. As the authors point out, and support with research and data, organizations that implement true diversity and inclusion, outperform those that don’t – both financially and creatively.

Take-Aways

  • A golden age of diversity, equity and inclusion (DEI) has arrived, but only in words and money.
  • Inclusive leaders make DEI happen. They demonstrate five personality traits: “authenticity, emotional resilience, self-assurance, inquisitiveness and flexibility.”
  • An inclusive leader adheres to five disciplines: “builds interpersonal trust; integrates diverse perspectives; optimizes talent; applies an adaptive mind-set; and achieves transformation.”
