This book develops and amplifies the emerging concept of diversity
intelligence, which is the capability of leaders to recognize the
value of workplace diversity and to use this information to guide
thinking and behavior. Organization leaders need diversity
intelligence to better interact with the changing demographics in
the US and the global economy, by embracing differences as
strengths rather than weaknesses. Without a clear understanding of
diversity, leaders are not fully equipped to realize organizational
goals through all employees. The author highlights the importance
of reimagining diversity and changing perspectives while
integrating it into leadership and career development plans
alongside intellectual intelligence, emotional intelligence, and
cultural intelligence. In order to fully motivate diverse
employees, leaders must first be able to recognize differences
between themselves and others without it being an obstacle to
performance. This edition addresses new topics related to allyship
and anti-racism, and discusses how these concepts can sometimes
hinder diversity efforts. This book fits in the literature in areas
of leadership and business value and aims to satisfy the need for
solutions to why diversity training and management efforts continue
to fall short of stated goals within organizations. It is a
window into how leaders can reflect on their actions and behaviors
to effectively implement new diversity strategies, and is an
essential read for HR researchers, professionals, consultants, and
managers of global operating companies.Â
