BUILD A CULTURE OF INCLUSIVITY "In Allies and Advocates, Amber Cabral takes you by the hand and leads you into a world of vulnerability and self-exploration from which you emerge as an instrument of change. Witty, wise, and full of gems, this is the no-nonsense guide we've been waiting for-from a voice we can trust." --KISHA MODICA, Inclusion and Diversity Global Leader, Apple Inc. If done right, inclusion positively impacts every part of society. Creating a diverse, inclusive, and equitable culture isn't easy--it requires courage, dedication, and a lot of hard work. Real inclusion requires you to take responsibility, and sometimes have uncomfortable conversations or make hard choices. Succeeding at allyship means recognizing how your own privilege can empower you to create visibility and opportunities for those who are dealing with the impacts of systemic oppression. You can contribute to and create cultures where fairness, respect, and mindfulness are the rule, rather than the exception. This is the key to building environments where everyone feels welcome, valued, and safe. The goal of Allies and Advocates is to move organizations and society beyond mandated diversity initiatives and achieve long-term and impactful change. If you are looking forward to building a culture of inclusivity and want to learn how to use your privi-lege to be a better ally, Allies and Advocates: Creating an Inclusive and Equitable Culture is a must-have.
