Balancing theory with a strong bias for practical and actionable insight, this book adds an authoritative and informed voice to the rising chorus demanding diverse workplaces. It is both timely and prescient; predicting a shift in what it will take for organisations to survive and thrive. Nothing short of 'total inclusivity' will be enough. Relevant to managers and leaders in organisations of all shapes, sizes, and forms, Total Inclusivity at Work is a powerful and important concept and this is a powerful and important book. - Dr Denry Machin, MD, Pedagogue and international school consultant
This engaging and enlightening book enters our consciousness at a time when we are asking critical questions about diversity, equity, inclusion and justice (DEIJ). Total inclusivity offers insightful contemplations and empathic challenges on the complexities of what it is to be human in the 21st century. Stephen Whitehead has imaginatively constructed a vision for a creative future; one that is 'purposeful, reflective, informed and relentless'. Total Inclusivity speaks to us not only about the principles and practices of DEIJ but of the poetics of living with ourselves, with each other and our environment. - Dr Roy Moodley, Director of the Centre for Diversity in Counselling and Psychotherapy, Toronto University
This book is bold in its statement of truths, and truly transformative in presenting the challenges we all face in creating inclusive cultures in an engaging, compassionate, manner. To suggest that this book is integral to understanding what it means to be 'totally inclusive' is an understatement. It is essential reading - not just for advocates of diversity, equity, inclusion and justice - but for each and every member of the communities in which we live and work. - Dr Rob Power, Founder, www.powerfulhistores.com
Profound, punchy, bold, and softened with touches of humour, this book introduces Total Inclusivity, a concept and practice whose time has come. 'Woke' or not, read it! - Dr Patrick Lee, Founder and Director, WLA
