To create cultures where diverse teams can thrive, we need leaders who are committed to inclusion. Many organizations have made public commitments to diversity, equity, and inclusion, but their leaders often lack the skills and knowledge necessary to lead inclusively. Leadership consultant and former Silicon Valley executive Minette Norman is committed to changing this. In her book, she shares some of the most important things she has learned about inclusive leadership over the years, including: Everyone needs to feel like they belong. Teams thrive when everyone feels safe to share their unique ideas and experiences. Innovation is a group activity. Empathy and compassion are essential leadership qualities. Leaders set the tone for their organizations through their words, actions, rewards, and tolerance. This book is not about quick fixes or superficial changes. It is for leaders who are willing to make a bold commitment to transforming their workplaces and who are prepared to challenge themselves and their teams. By following the principles outlined in this book, leaders can learn to maximize their team's potential and create cultures where everyone feels welcome, valued, and respected.
