Diversity Partnership Tips for White Men: A Skills Building Field Guide

This field guide addresses the most timely and critical issues of leadership and workplace diversity with refreshing candor. Diversity Partnership Tips for White Men focuses on a specific aspect of diversity and the key issues of the players involved. All three books offer practical, solution-oriented steps to lead you through some of the trickiest territory of today's organizations: the very personal - and often very political - problems and questions of individual and group identity. Written in plain English, without corporate jargon or self-help double-speak, it provides a field-tested real-world approach to growing leadership capacity while navigating the dynamics of workplace interpersonal relationships.

At last, a book that puts the invisible partners of diversity – white men – in the spotlight. This paradigm-busting field guide invites white men to step out of the shadows and fully join their organizations’ diversity efforts. Because, contrary to popular belief, their engagement is critical to the success of any serious diversity initiative. Only when white men form vital partnerships with other white men, white women and people of color can organizations move from mere pro forma head count increases to a genuinely new, inclusive culture.

Part of the challenge is understanding where white men are coming from. You’ll learn what white male culture is, and how it affects the white man’s business success. And you may be surprised to find out that despite their dominant position, white men are often overtly excluded from mainstream diversity efforts. That’s not a good thing, because there are powerful reasons why white men should care about – and invest in – diversity initiatives (hint: the stakes are much higher than most white men realize). Choosing to get involved in diversity actually helps white men build leadership skills; we’ll show you how. Plus, we outline new ways to smash old barriers so white men can partner more effectively with others.
