Book Inclusion on Purpose

Download or read book Inclusion on Purpose written by Ruchika Tulshyan and published by MIT Press. This book was released on 2024-03-26 with total page 305 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: How organizations can foster diversity, equity, and inclusion: taking action to address and prevent workplace bias while centering women of color. Few would disagree that inclusion is both the right thing to do and good for business. Then why are we so terrible at it? If we believe in the morality and the profitability of including people of diverse and underestimated backgrounds in the workplace, why don't we do it? Because, explains Ruchika Tulshyan in this eye-opening book, we don't realize that inclusion takes awareness, intention, and regular practice. Inclusion doesn't just happen; we have to work at it. Tulshyan presents inclusion best practices, showing how leaders and organizations can meaningfully promote inclusion and diversity. Tulshyan centers the workplace experience of women of color, who are subject to both gender and racial bias. It is at the intersection of gender and race, she shows, that we discover the kind of inclusion policies that benefit all. Tulshyan debunks the idea of the “level playing field” and explains how leaders and organizations can use their privilege for good by identifying and exposing bias, knowing that they typically have less to lose in speaking up than a woman of color does. She explains why “leaning in” doesn't work—and dismantling structural bias does; warns against hiring for “culture fit,” arguing for “culture add” instead; and emphasizes the importance of psychological safety in the workplace—you need to know that your organization has your back. With this important book, Tulshyan shows us how we can make progress toward inclusion and diversity—and we must start now.

Against the backdrop of bombed, skeletal towns and cities within Germany, American GIs battle not only the tenacious enemy but personal demons, despair and the descent into madness. Defying military regulations which prohibit fraternization, Drake woos and wins Fraulein Klara, a deserter from the Wehrmacht. Drake's comrade-in-arms Trapani, an American soldier of Italian/Jewish origin, struggles with his friend's embrace of a German girl, and with his own dilemma of racial identity and Nazi atrocities. The destines of these three very young people are irrevocably - shockingly - determined amid the ravaged ruins of a Rhineland city during the final days of the war. Moving between military sites in Belgium and Germany, the story introduces many of Drake's and Trapani's comrades - most in their late teens or early twenties - from their anti-aircraft battalion. It is a tale of Boys at War, and of the grievous psychic wounds which force them to become Men or destory them. The author completed this book in 1950 while a veteran with fresh memories of the war in Europe.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Psychologist and struggling aspiring writer Kris Bronson was just your ordinary hardworking guy. But that was the problem. He wanted more. Desperate for the search of finding the imagination he craves so badly for his own writing, he looks to the minds of the criminally insane, particularly two men who seem to have survived the annals of time. What started off as a job turned into one of the most fantastical roller-coaster rides Kris would ever experience. Carried by the tales of the Trojan War, to the demise of Julius Caesar, and even a nod to the Arthurian legend of Camelot, Kris finds the imagination he has been looking for. As he sees the magic of these two seemingly insane, dangerous men go to work on his mind, the stories of worlds within our own, guarded by monstrous and magical figures, he realizes that he is doing much more than finding a cure to his writer's block. He is being convinced that there is much more to this world than he ever realized, one that would inevitably be the end of the world as we know it by the hands of a modern-day terrorist that seems to have his own magical ties to Kris and the two men he conducts his sessions with.
