Giving notice is a classic text on why diversity and inclusion matters in the workplace.Essentially, the premise is that micro- and macro-insults contribute to women, ethnic minorities and gays leaving some workplaces - and that ends up costing companies, not just in lawsuits in the worst case, but also other losses through opportunity cost, turnover, less engaged employees, less innovation etc.
Further, it challenges us to try and tackle our own unconscious bias. I found it a useful reminder that perfectly competent (potential) role holders may not get a chance because they lack the right network.
Verdict: Eye opening and clearing
