The Inclusion Equation

The Inclusion Equation is a comprehensive guide for any organization seeking to substantially improve their diversity, equity, inclusion, and employee well-being by leveraging data and AI. While there are plenty of books on DEI and well-being, none combine these closely related topics in such a clear and effective manner. Written by thought leader and professional keynote speaker Dr. Serena Huang and leveraging her wide-ranging experience in data analytics, HR, digital transformation, and strategic planning from a seat on a corporate board, this book shows how HR professionals can leverage data analytics to improve the effectiveness and efficiency of all team members across an organization, as well as present findings in the same ways that marketing and finance departments do in order to demonstrate ROI and appeal to higher-ups in the organization when recommending new talent strategies. While considered "nice-to-haves" several years ago, DEI and employee well-being are critical to talent attraction and retention--Gen Z and millennials cite focus on DEI and mental health support as a top consideration in their job search. This book provides the actionable insight and methodology required to both appeal to new talent and retain existing talent. Striking a perfect balance between theory and practical technicalities, The Inclusion Equation earns a well-deserved spot on the bookshelves of DEI and well-being practitioners looking to gain traction with superior methodology quickly, as well as data analytics professionals who want to understand how to apply analytics to issues that keep their CEOs up at night.
