 |  Global Novations / Solutions / Diversity and Inclusion / The Power of Inclusion | | Unlock the Potential and Productivity of Your Workforce
| by Michael C. Hyter and Judith Turnock
The Power of Inclusion makes a business case for a new inclusive model of human resource development, driven by the demands of increasingly diverse workplaces and continuing expansion of the global economy. It demonstrates that people who succeed often acquire their talent because of the development attention they have received, and it shows how to create a culture of inclusion and development to unlock employee potential and productivity.
The Power of Inclusion addresses common beliefs and behaviors that are barriers to true inclusion:- Most organizations believe that they are meritocracies, but that is a myth that masks the real situation of unequal opportunity that exists in most firms.
- Exclusionary tendencies are built into leadership, management, and human resources practices that perpetuate unequal opportunity.
Most companies "sort and select," with managers hiring others most like themselves, and focus training and development on those who are identified as high potential.
This book makes a business case for a new inclusive model of human resource development, driven by the demands of increasingly diverse workplaces and continuing expansion of the global economy. It demonstrates that people who succeed often acquire their talent because of the development attention they have received, and it shows how to create a culture of inclusion and development to unlock employee potential and productivity.
The authors' approach — developing talent in all employees and aligning human resource systems and senior leadership commitment with that goal — is a response to a business challenge facing corporate North America today. The patterns of exclusion and preference that limit human potential are universal; this book offers management insights for any corporate audience serious about maximizing productivity in the competitive global economy.
