Making Differences Work: A New Values Based, Culture Driven, People Centric Approach to Achieving Commonality, Equality, Cohesion, and Business
Description
Description
Chart a New Way Forward through Commonality, Equality, and Cohesion in the Workplace.
Imagine a work environment where every person is appreciated. Every person. Where diversity, equity, and inclusion are more than admirable aspirations but instead clearly defined plans with proven methods of achievement. Where everyone is committed to pulling on the same rope, devoted to creating a culture with a strong sense of belonging, and unlocking new levels of business performance and success.
Through Paul Sarvadi's thirty-plus years of running a multibillion-dollar company and Eli Jones' multi-award-winning career in publishing sales and strategy research, and teaching, plus scientific studies and real-world applications, the wealth of knowledge in Making Differences Work will show you how to:
- Implement a values based, culture driven, people centric approach of commonality, equality, cohesion, and belonging to achieve the original unifying goals of diversity, equity, and inclusion.
- Create a highly collaborative culture full of purpose, focused on what we have in common, not the things that divide us.
- Align core values between employer and employees for a greater ability to achieve dynamic business results by unlocking employee engagement.
- Develop discretionary effort from employees and team creativity resulting in high performance across the organization.
Two sides of a coin with one goal: deepen employees' care and concern for one another and become a shining example of the best place to work for people of all backgrounds.
Critical Reviews
Critical Reviews
"Diversity, equity, and inclusion must be a top agenda item for all successful businesses. At Adobe, we believe that when people feel respected and included, they can be more creative, innovative, and successful. Paul and Eli offer critical insights and a playbook for today's business leader to effectively connect their DEI values and goals to business performance." - Shantanu Narayen, Chairman and CEO, Adobe
"Over decades, our society has been working on advancing humanity through diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) efforts in the workplace. Yet, we've fallen short in terms of measuring DEI's effectiveness. In this book, Paul Sarvadi and Eli Jones share a unifying framework which adds commonality, equality, and cohesion to DEI and belonging. The combination of a CEO's perspective coupled with a distinguished scholar's perspective is compelling and powerful. They use years of high-level business experience and data science to create a path forward that is not only good for society but also good for business." - Jagdish N. Sheth, Charles H. Kellstadt Professor, of Business, Goizueta Business School, Emory University
"Diversity, equity, and inclusion should be high on the agenda for any leader. Unfortunately, too many give it lip service and don't know how to make it happen so that it becomes a business driver. Paul and Eli provide the missing link that will help leaders walk the talk by connecting DEI goals with critical business objectives through the addition of commonality, equality, and cohesion. This book will get you thinking and doing the right things to move your business ahead." - David Novak, Co-Founder, Retired Chairman, and CEO, Yum! Brands
