The idea for this book came to Martin Davidson during a disarmingly honest conversation with a CEO he worked with. “Look,” the executive said, clearly troubled. “I know we can get a diverse group of people around the table. But so what? What difference does it really make to getting bottom-line results?”
Answering the “so what?” led Davidson to explore more deeply how companies typically manage diversity. He saw there were serious problems. Companies weren’t effectively building diversity into their larger business strategy and traditional diversity efforts were often hindering the professional development of the very people they were designed to help. Ultimately this is a leadership book, not a diversity book. Actively leveraging difference, rather than reactively managing diversity, can be what distinguishes an ordinary organization from an extraordinary one.
