The Inclusion Imperative showcases the inspiring commitment to inclusion the London Olympic and Paralympic Games' organizing committee espoused, and details the techniques and frameworks that enabled it to truly deliver a 'Games for everyone' at London 2012. Diversity and inclusion expert, Stephen Frost, challenges preconceived ideas and strives to inspire professionals to tackle inclusion in their organizations with courage, creativity and talent. With highly relatable examples, The Inclusion Imperative constitutes the best argument to convince sceptics that real diversity and inclusion can deliver more engaged employees and customers, improved employee recruitment and retention, increase productivity and better group decision-making processes. Real inclusion saves money and improves efficiency in the systems of an organisation, making the world a better place as a by-product. Building on concepts that include Diversity 3.0, detailed process journeys, and procurement governance, this is a must-read for HR and diversity officers frustrated with the guidance currently available, as well as for anyone who recognizes the legacy of the 2012 Games in fostering a tolerant and diverse society.

I talk to inanimate objects. The food I'm cooking, the computer I'm working on, that one object on the shelf that keeps sliding onto the floor. I also talk back to the shows I'm watching, and will nod to radio-presenters if they say stuff I agree with (or yell at them, when they are saying nonsensical things). I interact with the world in an active way, you might say.
However, when I start yelling at books and feel like I want to tear the pages out (which, I might add, is especially hard when reading an ebook), and when all the comments I making are IN ALL CAPS and consist of many quotes of things that show a complete misunderstanding of key concepts like privilige and notes like "BULLSHIT", I might have to tone down my active interactions a bit. So I stopped, after just reading one third of the book.
I am quite disappointed, because the topic, inclusion in the workplace, is very dear to me. I work in IT. Women and PoC are underrepresented in this field. I hoped this book would give me more insight in how this could be changed. Instead it gave me an endless introduction the Olympics (it was the use case, but still it got too much attention), way to much telling me why I should read the book (I'm already reading it! Why spend pages selling it to me?), unclear set-up of the book (I completely lost track of what the author tried to tell me multiple times), and a complete disregard of all the work in inclusion that has been done before (everyone did it WRONG and now the author is RIGHT). Not to mention the aforementioned wrong understanding of male/white privilege (Yes, white/male/straight people can come from disadvantageous backgrounds; however, however, that is not what privilege is about).
So, don't read this book. And if you do, make sure you get it in print, so you can throw it out of the window or use it as a punching bag. ( )
