Overview
Few would disagree that inclusion is both the right thing to do and good for business. Then why are we so terrible at it? If we believe in the morality and the profitability of including people of diverse and underestimated backgrounds in the workplace, why donāt we do it? Because, explains Ruchika Tulshyan in this eye-opening book, we donāt realize that inclusion takes awareness, intention, and regular practice. Inclusion doesnāt just happen; we have to work at it. Tulshyan presents inclusion best practices, showing how leaders and organizations can meaningfully promote inclusion and diversity.Ā

Tulshyan centers the workplace experience of women of color, who are subject to both gender and racial bias. It is at the intersection of gender and race, she shows, that we discover the kind of inclusion policies that benefit all. Tulshyan debunks the idea of the ālevel playing fieldā and explains how leaders and organizations can use their privilege for good by identifying and exposing bias, knowing that they typically have less to lose in speaking up than a woman of color does. She explains why āleaning inā doesnāt workāand dismantling structural bias does; warns against hiring for āculture fit,ā arguing for āculture addā instead; and emphasizes the importance of psychological safety in the workplaceāyou need to know that your organization has your back. With this important book, Tulshyan shows us how we can make progress toward inclusion and diversityāand we must start now.
