Many white leaders want to create change but don't know how to do so appropriately and effectively. How do you know where the blind spots are that can create obstacles for people of color? Your intentions may be sincere and heartfelt, but intentions aren't enough.

In It's Time to Talk about Race at Work, acclaimed speaker and bestselling author Kelly McDonald delivers a much-needed roadmap for business people. This book will help you successfully create a fair and equitable workplace that recognizes diverse talent and fosters productive and constructive conversations in your organization.

The costs and risks you're incurring if your organization lacks diversity
How people who don't consider themselves to be racist may still have diversity blind spots
How to start the hard conversations you may not know how to approach
The STARTING Method—an eight-step framework that shows you how to ensure your diversity and inclusion efforts are effective
How to recognize the excuses people use to avoid taking action on diversity and inclusion
How to address the issues and comments that come up when employees feel nervous, resentful, or uncomfortable as you make headway on diversity in your organization
