"What does a workplace utopia look like to you?" This is the question Dr. Ella
F. Washington asks company leaders, and often she hears about an ideal vision of
an organization that values diversity and inclusion and wants employees to bring
their whole selves to work. But how can you get there? Organizations have
largely missed the mark when it comes to creating environments where all
employees thrive in an equal and equitable way, because they treat diversity,
equity, and inclusion (DEI) as a program that gets done rather than the
necessary and difficult journey it is. A truly inclusive workplace requires
invention and reinvention, mistakes and humility, adaptation to a changing
world, constant reflection, and sometimes significant sacrifice. The road to an
inclusive workplace is a difficult one, but you can traverse it, and there's
help along the way. Start here with stories of companies making the necessary
journey, including Slack, PwC, Best Buy, Denny's, and many others. Hear from
company leaders about their successes and failures, the times they were on the
vanguard, and the moments they realized they had much more work to do. These are
profiles in perseverance from people who are keen enough to recognize the need
for inclusive workplaces and humble enough to know they're not there yet. Along
the way, Washington provides a framework for thinking about where these
companies are on their journeys and where you and your company may be too.
Progress is hard won on the necessary journey to becoming an inclusive
organization, but it must be won. John Lewis said it best: "You see something
you want to get done, you cannot give up, and you cannot give in."
