Description
The Person You Mean to Be: How Good People Fight Bias by Dolly Chugh is an insightful guide to confronting difficult issues such as sexism, racism, and inequality. Drawing on her research in unconscious bias, Dr Chugh offers practical tools for respectfully engaging with others who hold different views, being a better colleague to those from diverse backgrounds, and avoiding unintentional barriers to equality. To make a positive impact, it's essential to understand the causes of inequality and how our own biases can perpetuate them. This book provides a nuanced exploration of these issues, highlighting the importance of self-awareness and personal growth in creating change. By examining your own "ordinary privilege" - the aspects of your identity that you take for granted - you'll gain a deeper understanding of how to influence positive change. Through her research and expertise, Dr Chugh offers a thoughtful and accessible approach to fighting bias and promoting equality. This book is an invaluable resource for anyone looking to make a difference in their personal and professional lives.
