At a time when divisiveness and racism are on the rise, the need
and demand for diversity training and trainers has never been
greater. The authors - with more than 25 years of combined
experience in diversity and social justice work - conceived this
book in response to constant requests for advice on how to get
started in, and develop a career as, diversity consultants. This
succinct cookbook - with the additional wisdom of fourteen
well-known and respected practitioners who offer the lessons they
have learned - provides the guidance to get you going and succeed.
The cookbook metaphor reflects the delicate nature of diversity
consulting where the little things can make a significant
difference in the final outcome. As with cooking where a dash of
seasoning, the choice of temperature, or cooking time, impact the
final dish, so the wrong balance in creating an environment that is
welcoming and constructive while addressing issues that may be
disorienting for the audience can ruin a presentation before it
gets started. Like a cookbook, this book is set out in small
chunks. It covers the need to need to audit and enhance your skills
and knowledge, establish your brand and what you distinctively
bring to the table, develop your outreach and contacts, and learn
to listen to clients to determine what interventions will achieve
their long-term goals. It addresses the need to develop your
strategic plan with a clear sense of mission, vision, and values;
moves on to topics such as financial planning, pricing, contracts,
scheduling, and considerations about presentation styles and
handouts; and gets down to the specifics of marketing, with ideas
on business cards, websites, networking, and even how to dress. For
anyone contemplating embarking on a career as a diversity
consultant - either part-time while holding an existing position or
as a full-time endeavor, this is an invaluable guide for getting
started, and for keeping at your side as you develop your practice.
