Abstract

Most people from underrepresented racial and ethnic groups say that even when they are amongst their own team members they brace for signs of bias and unfair treatment. What can managers do to create a workplace where people do not have to feel on edge or to ‘cover’ their true identities to avoid negative attention? Allyson Zimmermann writes that ‘allyship’ behaviour, not just lip service, promotes the experience of inclusion for people of colour.
