Book Description

January 1, 2012
Why "Inclusion" is the linchpin to creating a high performance workplace and connecting to and engaging continually changing markets. Shirley Engelmeier was a pioneer of inclusion as a business catalyst more than 10 years ago when she launched InclusionINC. The insights gained over the past decade and years of experience as a highly effective business executive in a world dominated by "the majority" puts her at the forefront of a business revolution-the migration from diversity to inclusion... In Inclusion: The New Competitive Business Advantage, Engelmeier presents insights, tools, and tactics that form a compelling case for an inclusive business culture. She urges companies to move away from a focus on compliance and counting to the recognition that the simple solution to most business challenges lies in capturing, nurturing and leveraging the input of all employees. The culture change and transformation required in today's volatile global economy needs a fundamental shift in thinking-a shift that recognizes how to engage and capitalize on the diverse inputs within human capital to drive performance and profit. From an in-depth look at the trends impacting business today to a road map about how strategies of inclusion can drive business success, this timely book also presents perspectives of inclusion champions at high-performing companies that have embraced inclusion as a new global business imperative.

5.0 out of 5 stars Diversity: Expanded and why it's necessary October 16, 2012
Format:Hardcover|Amazon Verified Purchase
I'm an entrepreneur, not a corporate guy, but was captivated by the author's writing style and compelling argument for inclusion. Taking it beyond women and minorities, she addresses the generational issue, where the young are clamoring to participate in strategy, but the old are blocking the way because they are threatened and comfortable with the "way we've always done things." As a septuagenarian, my eyes and mind were opened to the point of understanding the criticality of inclusion for the future.

5.0 out of 5 stars Newfound focus on inclusion in the workplace August 9, 2012
By Kristen
Format:Hardcover
This is a great new book that links business goals to strategic inclusion and diversity initiatives within the workplace. Engelmeier suggests many reasons why its important to start looking at the broader business benefits of inclusion. The real way to make inroads in the inclusion and diversity space in a "do more with less" economy is to tie it back to the bottom line ROI and this book tells you how to get there.
