The CEO Activist: Putting The 'S' In ESG

In The CEO Activist: Putting the 'S' in ESG, celebrated diversity, inclusion, belonging, equity and culture (DIBEC) expert Leila McKenzie-Delis delivers an inspirational and practical guide to implementing DIBEC programs that actually work on the ground. In the book, you'll explore 10 facets of visible and invisible diversity, including race and ethnicity, gender, disability and neurodiversity, age and generation, mental health and wellness, parenthood and caring responsibilities, nationality, religion and belief, and socio-economic status, and how they can affect a person's experience and reality at work.

The author discusses the compelling business case for having a diverse group of employees, proving that organisations that achieve high levels of diversity and inclusion are more creative, more innovative, and more profitable. You'll discover why the teams with the broadest levels of diversity create the most widely relevant products and solutions and are better able to attract the most talented employees and the most committed investors.

The CEO Activist walks you through the 'S' in ESG (Social Impact within Environmental, Social and Governance) and what you need to do as a self-aware, proactive, and present member of society to ensure you have your own, innate sense of self, and the ability to step into your power and claim your space with the utmost confidence. You'll also learn about the external factors that must be improved in our schools, workplaces, and communities to guarantee that a diverse array of people can succeed and thrive.

An invaluable and insightful resource for managers, executives, directors, and other business leaders, The CEO Activist will also prove to be a hands-on and exciting book for human resources professionals, talent recruiters, and people professionals of all kinds.
