Summary

The highly-acclaimed practical guide for how to be an ally in the workplace, now in its second edition.

Are you looking to build a workplace culture with a certain buzz about it? Where employees are thriving and engagement survey scores are through the roof? Where people from different backgrounds, races, genders, sexual orientations and identities, ages, and abilities are hired and set up for success? One secret to creating this kind of vibrant and supportive workplace is practicing active allyship.

With the Better Allies® approach, it's something anyone can do. Since originally publishing Better Allies in 2019, Karen Catlin has amassed dozens of new scenarios and insights through her talks, workshops, and community interactions. In this fully revised second edition, you'll learn to spot situations where you can create a more inclusive culture, along with straightforward steps to take and changes to make.

Catlin, a highly-sought after expert on allyship, will walk you through:

  • Attracting and hiring a diverse workforce
  • Cultivating an environment where coworkers feel welcome, respected, and supported
  • Amplifying and advocating for others
  • Giving effective and equitable performance feedback
  • Using more inclusive language
  • Running inclusive conferences and events

Listen to this book to learn the Better Allies® approach, level-up your ally skills, and create a culture where everyone can do their best work and thrive.

A useful beginner's guide to allyship

The author provides helpful guidance to male allies for women, and appears to genuinely want to be an ally to people more marginalised than herself.

This is obviously an ongoing learning process, but her good faith shines through.

Unfortunately, the quality of the recording was terrible, which made it difficult on occasion to make out what was being said.

Something went wrong. Please try again in a few minutes.
