how managers can discuss race

Ending The Bureaucracy That Threatens Inclusion

Our organizations change with the same expediency we change; when we trade acceptance for outrage. Now is the time for us to admit what we have known for a very long time: corporations are at odds with our values in how they treat the people whose lives they devour.

It is usual for managers to question whether they are doing "the right thing" when addressing race and racism issues in the workplace.

Establishing these conversations in evidence and good intentions is better than not talking about race at all.
