Description
Gain the confidence to not only talk about race, but actually make a difference when you do.
Negotiation expert Kwame Christianโs motto is: โThe best things in life are on the other side of difficult conversations.โ If we want a more equitable workplace and a more equitable world, we have to talk to each other about race.
But, for so many of us, thatโs easier said than done.
Many people avoid conversations about race because of fear: fear of discomfort, damaging important relationships, being misunderstood, โcanceled,โ ostracized. How to Have Difficult Conversations About Raceย equips you with the skills you need to make these crucial conversations easier and more productive.
Whether youโre looking to create change for yourself and other BIPOC, or a white ally seeking to support your coworkers or clients, youโll learn how to:
โขย ย Overcome your internal barriers to talking about diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI).
โขย ย Work aroundย othersโย barriers to productive discussion.
โขย ย Be strategic about the outcome you want, and guide the conversation accordingly.
โขย ย Use โCompassionate Curiosityโ to connect and persuade.
โขย ย Avoid common mistakes.
โขย ย Communicate more effectively over email, when you canโt talk face to face.
If youโve ever struggled to turn that passion into persuasion, or been too afraid to speak up at work (or outside of it), this book is for you.
The first step toward lasting social change is productive discussion. With this book, youโll never shy away from those important conversations againโinstead approaching them with courage and conviction.
