Book
Suggested reading by Franklin Consulting & Training Services, LLC
In his first book, Blueprint for Diversity, Dr. Vernon Franklin draws on decades of experience as an instructor and administrator in higher education to explain why most well-intentions for DEI programs fail. Dr. Franklin then goes on to outline his own plan that considers the need for leadership not just to pay lip service to diversity but to establish it as a non-negotiable value for them and their organization. Using a systematic, step-by-step process, Dr. Franklin lays the foundation for diversity with what he calls the Five Building Blocks for Diversity, which include:
- Organizational Awareness
- Transformational Leadership
- Staff Preparation
- Empathetic Planning
- Sustainability
If you are interested in developing a program for inclusion that has the power to achieve the desired results, the Blueprint for Diversity is a book you will want to read and refer to again and again as you construct a program that imparts a sense of belonging to everyone involved.
