Readers who will benefit the most from reading this book will fall into a few specific categories:

 The CEO, president, business owner, or business leader who recognizes that their company or enterprise is not very diverse and that this is a real business problem that negatively affects the organization's performance, growth, and profit.

 The executive who has been tasked by their organization to lead, create, expand, or improve their DE&I (diversity, equity, and inclusion) efforts internally.

 The team leader who does not have a diverse team and wants to change that in a relevant way, bringing new talent, skills, and perspective that avoids tokenism.

 The team leader who does have a diverse team, but recognizes that some members of the team may not feel included or heard or perhaps have not received the same chances and opportunities for professional development and advancement as others have.

 The coworker or colleague who is struggling to work alongside people who are different and is afraid to say anything that may not be “politically correct” because they fear being fired or labeled as racist, sexist, homophobic, xenophobic, etc.

 The coworker or colleague who is culturally aware and sensitive to the inequity of others (“woke”) and wants to be an effective ally to diverse team members.

 The person who wants to be a better neighbor, friend, volunteer, community member, parent, teacher, partner, client, customer, civil servant, business owner, or church member—in other words, anyone who just wants to be a better person.
