| Sumario: | "Accenture is now a technology giant, over 700,000 people strong with Fortune 100 status, and diversity has been a key driver of its growth. Unwavering focuses on the bravery, strength, and vision of Nellie Borrero, the leader who established diversity, equity, and inclusion, as must-do strategies for global success. Borrero starts with helping non-diverse people understand what it really feels like to be disadvantaged. She exposes the daily indignities she endured navigating a corporate culture when biases went unchecked. She shines a light on "what success looks like" through unforgettable vignettes. She documents her wins and her setbacks as she transforms the company from its Caucasian- and male-dominated workforce to the #1 ranked employer for inclusion, diversity, and equity, according to Fair360. For people in positions of power, Unwavering is a manifesto for understanding and action. The book shows how to create game-changing relationships that make diversity and inclusion an integral part of a company's competitive advantage. It recasts leaders from "awkward allies" to effective advocates, mentors, coaches, and sponsors. It drives lasting change through its transparency, frameworks, and research. (Want to know what you can do on Monday morning to create a more inclusive and high-preforming team? Unwavering tells you). For people in diverse communities, Unwavering is a mind shift to help them think bigger, know your full value, and show up with it everywhere, every day. Thanks to Borrero's truly human and relatable lessons, readers will become more assertive, competitive, and confident. Unwavering is the story of a first-generation Latina who joins a fast-growing services firm, faces down bigotry and bias, transforms the company into a diversity champion, gives birth to award-winning inclusion and diversity programs, and becomes an award-winning executive. It is also the story of a Fortune 100 company that moved from indifference about diversity to setting new standards for workforces globally. Most of all, Nellie Borrero normalizes conversations about bias, bigotry, and equality--whether they take place in the hallway or the boardroom."-- |
