Book Description
"What does a workplace utopia look like to you?" This is the question Dr. Ella F. Washington asks company leaders, and often she hears about an ideal vision of an organization that values diversity and inclusion and wants employees to bring their whole selves to work. But how can you get there? Organizations have largely missed the mark when it comes to creating environments where all employees thrive in an equal and equitable way, because they treat diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) as a program that gets done rather than the necessary and difficult journey it is. A truly inclusive workplace requires invention and reinvention, mistakes and humility, adaptation to a changing world, constant reflection, and sometimes significant sacrifice. The road to an inclusive workplace is a difficult one, but you can traverse it, and there's help along the way. Start here with stories of companies making the necessary journey, including Slack, PwC, Best Buy, Denny's, and many others. Hear from company leaders about their successes and failures, the times they were on the vanguard, and the moments they realized they had much more work to do. These are profiles in perseverance from people who are keen enough to recognize the need for inclusive workplaces and humble enough to know they're not there yet. Along the way, Washington provides a framework for thinking about where these companies are on their journeys and where you and your company may be too. Progress is hard won on the necessary journey to becoming an inclusive organization, but it must be won. John Lewis said it best: "You see something you want to get done, you cannot give up, and you cannot give in."

Develop an understanding of the key terms around DEI and why they matter. Assess where your organization is today.

Book Description
This Necessary Journey through the pleasure, pain and passion of being alive is seductive as sin and as promising as redemption. With an unblinking eye it offers a raw and sometimes devastating look at self and society. Come and explore a series of destinations faced and examined in this riveting emotional and spiritual sojourn. Experience the doubts, angst and ecstasy of searching for and knowing love; the struggle to keep and the anguish of having to let it go. Embrace this glimpse inside a soul that lashes out at social injustices and mourns what is fast becoming our lost generation. Share the despair of parents trying to keep their children in school, struggling not to lose them to the streets and the lure of easy money. Question the value system that lauds rap stars as heroes while glorifying a lifestyle that comes with a body count. Look closely within yourself and then back at institutionalized religions replete with their plastic gods, false prophets and malevolent deities. Necessary Journey is a middle passage of mind, body and spirit in pursuit of the freedom of self-possession. At once demanding and pleading, sinful and righteous, this is poetry with a pulse.

Book Description
". . . a wonderful teaching tool for those who are welcoming refugees into their community."—The New York Times With haunting echoes of the current refugee crisis this beautifully illustrated book explores the unimaginable decisions made as a family leave their home and everything they know to escape the turmoil and tragedy brought by war. This book will stay with you long after the last page is turned. From the author: The Journey is actually a story about many journeys, and it began with the story of two girls I met in a refugee center in Italy. After meeting them I realized that behind their journey lay something very powerful. So I began collecting more stories of migration and interviewing many people from many different countries. A few months later, in September 2014, when I started studying a Master of Arts in Illustration at the Academy of Lucerne, I knew I wanted to create a book about these true stories. Almost every day on the news we hear the terms "migrants" and "refugees" but we rarely ever speak to or hear the personal journeys that they have had to take. This book is a collage of all those personal stories and the incredible strength of the people within them.
