Wednesday, May 8, 2024

Offering the tools for implementing DEI initiatives and measuring their effectiveness

WASHINGTON, April 30, 2024 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- Inspired by the hope to dismiss misinformation amongst news outlets and the advocation of negative information, as well as to restore balance to society, author LeRoy Thompson Ph.D. publishes, "Foundations and New Frontiers In Diversity, Equity, And Inclusion," an educational read on the keys to deriving sustainable value for DEI initiatives.

"My deepest aspiration is to contribute to the collective wisdom of humanity," Thompson said. "I strive to have each page be a beacon of enlightenment, guiding readers towards greater understanding, compassion, and empowerment."

The focus of this book is to convey a more precise understanding of the key distinctions between each of these three elements as this is essential to sustainable progress. Secondly, it will allow readers to appreciate the normalization of the discussion of bias. Thirdly, recognizing the mechanisms by which bias is formed, equipping readers with the capacity to minimize cultural collisions and create an empathetic climate.

"This subject has become an important topic as many social injustices have occurred in the last four years," Thompson said. "I've been in this field for over 20 years and hope my knowledge and understanding may have a historical perspective."

Believing an incredible amount of information is misused amongst news outlets, which advocate negative information, the author hopes by sharing his knowledge he may cultivate a balance in humanity for the greater good.

"My deepest aspiration is to contribute to the collective wisdom of humanity," Thompson said. "I strive to have each page be a beacon of enlightenment, guiding readers towards greater understanding, compassion, and empowerment."
