Summary
‘An excellent, example-rich and immediately practical book which will no doubt stay close to hand and dog-eared with use for years to come.’ Dr Pippa Grange Psychologist and Author of Fear Less
Talk to anyone about Diversity, Equity and Inclusion (DEI) and it sparks a whole range of emotions. Why? Because DEI, at its very core, is about values and beliefs, and it’s about change. So it is no surprise then, that despite putting in place a DEI strategy and multiple initiatives, so many organizations get stuck.
Beyond Discomfort reveals a new model of inclusive leadership, which describes four belief systems and associated emotional responses to DEI.
Discover:
- real life stories and expert insights to deepen your understanding of why DEI is so knotty and complex;
- self-understanding and new perspectives to better connect with your learned leadership values and beliefs;
- reflective questions, practical tools and activities to help develop your inclusive practice.
Nadia Nagamootoo is a Chartered Psychologist, accredited coach, MBA and Founder of Avenir, a DEI consultancy. Through her multiple keynotes and popular podcast show, Why Care?, Nadia has become a profound thought leader in DEI, guiding organizations on an accelerated path to creating inclusion and belonging.
Critic reviews
A thought provoking offering that is well written, highly personal and engaging at every turn of the page...Nadia’s greatest secret is her use of story telling. Leveraging this skill, she provides example after example..to provide an engaging narrative to illustrate her points, and making the book a great read...This book is a timely reminder we need to do more as leaders, coaches and colleagues to create workplaces where everyone is not only included, but places where everyone can thrive. - Jonathan Passmore, Henley Business School Professor, LinkedIn
I cannot recommend this book highly enough for anyone in a leadership role, and for those who coach and work with leaders on their development. - Dr Hayley Lewis, Chartered Coaching Psychologist, LinkedIn
A compelling read for those seeking to excel in diverse social landscapes and move beyond traditional social structures. - Elena Amber, bestselling author of The Gift of Sensitivity
