A great read for people of color and especially those of a different color. It would be great for this book to be embraced by white leaders in business. The only problem is if their business is thriving and they are color blind, it will be business as usual and no change will take place. A must-read by both black and white races. The book would benefit the white business leader to know and strike up the conversation. It would also benefit the black reader to educate on what and how to handle this in the workplace. This is a ground-breaking combination of intriguing novel and business consulting that follows five African-American characters as they exchange personal experiences that happen behind the research, data, and attempts at best practices. The story provides insight on the: - experience behind the metrics and scorecards - issue of black hair and what being a 'good fit' means - contradiction of why height isn't an advantage for Black males - words that make a difference in conversations - essential connection between #blacklivesmatter #blackmoneymatters and #blacktalentmatters Learn how to: - initiate conversations that build trust - navigate your company's culture - plan your career for sustainable success - attract and retain minority talent - transform your organization's culture
