Published in May 2022, with over 100 Amazon reviews, it has consistently hit no.1 spots in Amazon’s Hot New Release, HR Training, Organisational Theory and Behaviour and Discrimination and Racism categories as well as being a finalist for the Business Book Awards 2023. Main insights: - It's impossible to hire your way into fixing this problem i.e. hiring more Black people, a mistake many organizations are still making. - Without holding frequent space for executive board conversations about racism to build courage, confidence and racial literacy, it becomes difficult to build robust plans that stand up to public scrutiny. - Having the right language to talk about racism and utilising frameworks to help take meaningful action is a key differentiator. It takes skill and knowledge beyond just having lived experience - and it’s barely discussed in most general diversity and inclusion articles, books and whitepapers or accounted for in organizations who don't have access to senior level expertise. - There is a difference between transactional and transformational change. Most organizations struggle to know the difference so end up focusing on the former, which leads to short-term low impact tokenistic initiatives. ➡️ For a deeper dive into how others are applying the principles from the book into their workplaces, visit Shereen’s YouTube channel - https://www.youtube.com/@Shereen_Daniels ➡️ To find out more about her work visit https://shereen-daniels.com/ ➡️ To have HR rewired support your company ➡️ To have Shereen speak at your next company or network event contact [email protected]
