Moving Diversity Forward:
How to Go From Well-Meaning to Well-Doing
by: Vernā Myers
Diversity is Being Invited to the Party; Inclusion is Being
Asked to Dance - Vernā Myers
As a high-profile diversity consultant, author Vernā Myers knows first-hand that diversity in law firms, corporations and other majority-white organizations can be a difficult thing to comprehend and reform. Leaders of these institutions are deeply perplexed by an increasing number of people of color coming into their work environments hopeful, then exiting quickly thereafter, disillusioned and disengaged.
Inviting these individuals and others from historically underrepresented groups into predominately white male organizations is not enough. Well-meaning white people have to be willing to gain new attitudes, awareness and skills to engage black people on the dance floor of inclusion.
In her new book, Moving Diversity Forward: How to Go From Well-Meaning to Well-Doing, Vernā Myers, provides a practical, concrete and humorous guide for anyone who wants to strengthen their organization’s effectiveness and enjoy more authentic relationships across race.
