"Praise for Belonging: The Key to Transforming and Maintaining Diversity, Inclusion, and Equality at Work: ""Belonging never forgets that diversity is not a problem to be solved but an opportunity to be grasped. It's essential reading for anyone who wants to take diversity in their organization from fine words to reality.""--Mark Thompson, former president and CEO, The New York Times ""Belonging is an important book for anyone who wants to attract and keep diverse talent. It is full of new voices describing the experience of being different and unable to fully participate and contribute at work. It has practical advice that any one of us could implement the next day to make ourselves more aware and inclusive. If you want to stop just talking about inclusion and start doing something about it--this is the book for you.""--Jan Gooding, former Chair, Stonewall ""Belonging takes a complex and often uncomfortable subject and makes it truly accessible and absolutely achievable by weaving real stories, sharp analysis and practical, business-ready solutions. Whether on day 1 of your career or a 30 year veteran of your profession, buy this book and create the change your organisation, and the world, needs.""--Sarah Jenkins, Managing Director, Saatchi & Saatchi ""A real roadmap oozing with intelligent, tried and tested success strategies that can be implemented right away is just what I would expect from three of the brightest minds in the business. Belonging is a must read for anyone interested in inclusion and self-fulfilment at work--it's honest, practical and really could not have come at a better time, when the need to change culture is urgent and small, incremental shifts just won't cut it.""--Leila Siddiqi, Associate Director, Diversity, IPA ""At a time when things need to change, and change fast, the authors of Belonging have written a new guidebook for running businesses today. Current leaders--and those who hope to become leaders--will gain critical and actionable insights on diversity and inclusion from this important book.""--Bob Pittman, Chairman and CEO, iHeartMedia, Inc. ""If there was a time for Belonging, then it is now. This book not only underscores the need and importance of diversity but also makes the case that diversity is not just a 'nice to have' endeavour but a true competitive edge that allows companies to unleash innovation, employee joy, corporate reputation and value creation.""--Rishad Tobaccowala, author of Restoring the Soul of Business: Staying Human in the Age of Data ""The most important business book of the year. Belonging functions as both a wake-up call, explaining why it is in the interests of such men to embrace diversity, inclusion, and belonging, as well as a high-level how-to guide, offering practical advice on how best to go about making such changes.""-- ""Esquire Magazine"""
