The text from the back of the book:
Inclusion Nudges for Motivating Allies

Apply Inclusion Nudges to motivate people
to be allies and make inclusion the norm everywhere
– for everyone, by everyone!

True change towards more inclusive organisations, communities, and societies is a journey towards getting as many people as possible motivated and engaged in making the needed changes. One of the biggest mistakes, that most of us who advocate for this
kind of change, can make is trying to convince people to join and be allies. Not only are we talking to the wrong brain system, but we are also speaking the wrong language. What we need to do is make people see the issues of inequality that they are blind to,
and make them feel the need to take action and be the change. Making this happen, will require that we target the unconscious mind with eye-opening interventions that steer our thinking and behaviour to be inclusive, as well as reframe perceptions, biases, and stereotypes. Help people see what they are blind to and they will be engaged automatically. This Action Guide makes it easy for you to do this.

All people who care about positive change, social innovation, and progress towards more inclusive growth and sustainable development can and should apply the 30 inclusive actions in this book. You have the power to make it happen.
