"So many of us want to be even more inclusive as leaders, but for a number of reasons we aren't always sure how. It is truly a journey, and we're all at different places. Jennifer Brown writes with compassion and empathy while giving us a little kick in the pants. The reality is that we can all do more to make our teams and workplaces more inclusive, and this important book shows actual steps for making this happen."
--Mike Robbins, author of Bring Your Whole Self to Work

"Finally, a book that acknowledges that allyship is a continuum and that all of us should up our advocacy constantly, like working a muscle. The situational examples allow us all to dress rehearse how we'll meet these moments when they come up in real life. A must-read for anyone committed to a world where we all belong and contribute fully."
--Kat Gordon, founder and CEO, The 3% Movement

"In How to Be an Inclusive Leader, Jennifer Brown adds crucial action-oriented perspectives on how to build the most effective, innovative cultures: by helping leaders ensure that all team members feel that they belong. At a time when most discussion is focused on platitudes or justifying the benefits of diversity, Jennifer provides strategies to drive impact across organizations. As major demographic shifts change the global workforce, this book is essential reading for any leader wanting to build a resilient, future-proof organization."
--Aubrey Blanche, Global Head of Diversity and Belonging, Atlassian

"I've long valued the modern lens through which Jennifer approaches diversity and inclusion, and How to Be an Inclusive Leader lends a long-overdue voice to inclusive leadership in the new workplace. As the increasingly diverse workforce looks for accountability from their employers, it's more important than ever for leaders to ensure that they're not just talking about inclusion but creating a culture in which employees feel comfortable bringing every part of themselves to work. This book is the leader's guide to doing just that."
--Tia Silas, Vice President, Global Chief Diversity and Inclusion Officer, IBM

"Jennifer effortlessly tackles the power and significance of strategically practicing inclusion for the benefit of everyone without the standard complex and empirical processes that may work for great business plans, however, not for the vastly diverse people who drive and execute them. Jennifer skillfully, with a visceral and purposeful approach, exhibits her master-class global expertise as the leading authority on developing a culture of belonging by offering us the very pragmatic Stages of the Inclusive Leader Continuum and reminding us that our journey begins with a series of important steps. My first step was reading this book."
