Authentic : the myth of bringing your full self to work / by Burey, Jodi-Ann,author.;
Includes bibliographical references."From the creator of a viral TED talk comes a bold call to rethink authenticity at work Workplace dynamics in recent years have been a dizzying storm of broken promises. Companies that once encouraged employees to "come as you are" and bring your full, authentic self to work are now shutting down initiatives, part of an ongoing cycle of trading on our identities when it's convenient and profitable. Those calls for authenticity were never honest and are actually harmful. Jodi-Ann Burey, writer and critic known for her TED talk "The Myth of Bringing Your Full, Authentic Self to Work," delves into the dangers of disclosure in environments that aren't built for our well-being. With insights from pop culture , academic research, and interviews with other professionals of color, Burey argues that we can do better than shallow ploys for representation. Our physical and emotional health are at risk, and too much is sacrificed-for ourselves and for collective progress-when our full potential is blocked by racism, sexism, homophobia, transphobia, and ableism. Authentic is a powerful reckoning-and now is the time to reclaim our agency. Even at work"--

Birds of all feathers : doing diversity and inclusion right / by Bach, Michael,author.;
Includes bibliographical references."Diversity" and "inclusion" have become buzz words. They're used in casual conversation by CEOs and world leaders alike. But what do these words mean, why do they matter ... and why did you just pick up a book about them? In Birds of All Feathers, speaker, author and D&I expert Michael Bach argues that creating diverse, inclusive workplaces is not just the right thing to do--it is the smart thing to do. It embraces an ethos of innovation and creativity. It's good for you and your employees, it strengthens your organization, and it benefits the people you serve. Whether you are in the arts, health, non-profit, for-profit, or another sector, there is a business case for making your organization a space of true inclusion. Birds of All Feathers shows you how to discover your organization's "why," how to implement and sustain beneficial changes, and how to measure its success. With more than twenty years of experience in the field, Michael Bach, founder of the Canadian Centre for Diversity and Inclusion (CCDI), lays out what can be a complex topic in expertly accessible terms and teaches you how to do D&I right.

Jared (white, Justyce's roommate, woke) is running for Junior class president. With his antiracism platform, he's a shoo-in. But he's up against the new girl, Dylan. Will Jared have to choose between his head and his heart? Jared Peter Christensen is running for president (of the Junior Class Council at his university, but still). His platform is solid—built on increased equity and inclusion in all sectors of campus life—and he’s got a good chance of beating the deeply conservative business major he’s running against. But then a transfer student enters the race and calls Jared out for his big-talk/little-action way of moving. But what’s the right way to bring about change? As the campaign heats up, feelings are caught, and juicy secrets come to light, and Jared writes letters to his deceased friend Manny, hoping to make sense of his confusion. What’s a white boy to do when love and politics collide? New York Times bestselling author Nic Stone writes from a new perspective in this exciting final chapter of the Dear Martin series that examines privilege, love, and our political climate.
