Diversity, Inc.
The Failed Promise of a Billion-Dollar Business
by:
Pamela Newkirk
in:
Racial Studies
Summary:
The book critically examines the diversity industry in corporate America, revealing how despite billions spent on diversity initiatives, progress has been largely superficial and has failed to produce meaningful racial and gender inclusion. It delves into case studies, interviews, and research to expose the gap between the rhetoric of inclusivity and the realities of persistent inequality in the workplace.
Key points:
1. Surface-Level Diversity: Despite heavy spending on diversity, companies often focus on image rather than actual change, mistaking visible diversity for real progress.
