Acclaimed talent management and organizational development expert Allison Manswell has released her highly anticipated second book, “Someday is Today: Achieving Racial Equity in the Workplace.” This sequel to “Listen In: Crucial Conversations on Race in the Workplace” shifts the focus from awareness to solutions, providing a roadmap for achieving racial equity in the workplace.

Through the lens of five Black professionals navigating corporate America, “Someday is Today” explores critical themes such as generational differences, microaggressions, and allyship. With a foreword by Terrence Floyd, brother of George Floyd, this book offers a compelling narrative that challenges readers to consider diverse perspectives and solutions.

Allison Manswell, a seasoned expert in culture, leadership development, and DEI, emphasizes that racial equity is the foundation for inclusivity. “Unless and until we secure racial equity as a foundation of U.S. culture, all other identities will struggle to experience inclusion,” she states.
