From the Back Cover
“Reed’s insights into who gets into the executive suite raise true and serious questions about the overall success of affirmative action in bringing the full diversity of the American population into corporations at all levels. They are questions that need to be answered by corporate and political leaders.”
— Mike Deblieux, SPHR-CA, Principal Leadership Development Coach“
The Diversity Index provides a corrective to the scholarly research on race integration and still-relevant lessons for corporations that seek to do better at it.” — Barbara Reskin, S. Frank Miyamoto Professor of Sociology, University of Washington“While one can quarrel with some specifics of [Susan Reed’s] recommendations, without a doubt, this will be an important and valuable book in the field of diversity as practitioners look to go to the next level with their work.”
