Book Buzz from The International Leadership Association 2023 Global Conference. Authors Joanne Barnes and Bjørn Zakarias Ekelund discuss their book Inclusive Leadership: Equity and Belonging in Our Communities.

“It is often tempting to proclaim, ‘We’ve come a long way,’ but the persistent challenges faced by historically underrepresented and marginalized individuals tell a different story. In a world where not everyone is granted equal opportunities and the “just keep trying” mantra persists, there remains an urgent need to practice and understand diversity, equity, inclusion, and belonging (DEIB).

Inclusive Leadership: Equity and Belonging in Our Communities, serves as a guide to what it means and looks like to be an ally and advocate for DEIB and will illuminate the path for you, your leadership, and all who seek to prioritize and implement fostering inclusivity and fairness.” – Daisy Auger-Domínguez, author of Inclusion Revolution: The Essential Guide to Dismantling Racial Inequity in the Workplace and Chief People Officer at Vice Media
