The Race Paradox
Why do organisations that celebrate diversity still fail on race?
The Race Paradox exposes the “illusion of inclusion” and the frustrating gap between well-meaning corporate intentions and daily workplace reality. Award-winning executive Dr Carlton Brown uncovers the root causes of persistent organisational bias, proving how companies praise their own progressive metrics while quietly maintaining deep-seated racial hierarchies.
Moving far beyond performative box-ticking, this book demonstrates that systemic racism does not just stall minority careers. It actively cripples a company’s innovation, talent retention, and commercial profit.
Blending extensive research with real-world business expertise, Dr Brown moves past standard workplace critiques to deliver an action-oriented corporate blueprint. The Race Paradox is the definitive, no-nonsense handbook for executives, HR leaders, and policymakers ready to dismantle empty gestures and drive permanent structural change.
