Praise for The Human Equity Advantage " Human equity challenges the boundaries of current thinking on diversity and inclusion because it represents a natural evolution from focusing on organizational barriers to empowering the individual and the organization collectively. By creating a platform where each person and organization can determine whether a person's unique skills and attributes are appropriately aligned and fit with the organization's objectives, it provides a real breakthrough strategy that will also address diversity fatigue." —Stephen Shea, Managing Partner, People, Ernst &Young, Canada " Trevor Wilson's experience and knowledge shine through in this important contribution, offering fresh perspectives focused on the value of equity in support of optimizing human capital—a must-read for leaders and other stakeholders." —Dr. Fiona Bartels-Ellis, OBE; Global Head of Diversity, British Council " The Human Equity Advantage is a must-read resource for leaders and managers who want to move past tired lectures about diversity and into a model that focuses on how to leverage the unique talents of every individual in their organization." —Shelton J. Goode, Manager, Diversity & Inclusion, Georgia Power Company " Wilson's human equity model advances diversity, crystallizes it as a manifestation of strengths of character that foster well-being, and imbues life with meaning and purpose. Intellectually stimulating, Wilson has crafted a holistic endeavor that explores, expresses, and enhances the very best attributes that make our work and life worthy of living." — Tayyab Rashid, Ph.D., C.Psych, Health & Wellness Centre, University of Toronto Scarborough " As Trevor explains, being inclusive starts with leaders going back to basics and remembering that people are individuals first and part of a group second. Our actions should value and respond to the needs of each individual to help them develop and contribute to their full potential and be all they can be." —Bill McFarland, CEO and Senior Partner (Canada), PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP
