The Anti-Racist Organization Dismantling Systemic Racism in the Workplace

Tackle systemic racism in the workplace with practical strategies

In The Anti-Racist Organization: Dismantling Systemic Racism in the Workplace, HR strategist Shereen Daniels delivers an incisive and honest discussion of how business leaders can change workplace practices to create a more anti-racist and equitable environment. The author draws on her personal and client-facing experience, historical fact, legal proceedings, HR insights, and quantitative analysis to equip readers with the knowledge and tools they need to transform their companies.

Daniels also looks at:

• The role of executive leaders and how to push past discomfort to credibly and authentically lead change
• Strategies for recognising the problem of systemic racism and implementing impactful solutions
• Why it’s important to empower colleagues to be pioneers of change and how to do that
• Explanations of why diversity and inclusion initiatives haven’t yet solved the problem
• Ways language can either be a weapon to perpetuate systemic racism or a tool to dismantle

An indispensable exploration of how systemic racism is engrained into business structures, policies, and procedures, The Anti-Racist Organization: Dismantling Systemic Racism in the Workplace belongs in the libraries of all business leaders seeking to make their workplace more inclusive and equitable.

SHEREEN DANIELS is Chair of the African Diaspora Economic Inclusion Foundation and Managing Director of HR rewired.
