Abstract

Despite their companies' pledges to support social justice initiatives and racial and gender equity in recent years, many business leaders are now balking at the label "woke" -- a term that has become a political weapon. But the authors assert that addressing inequality and injustice in the workplace and beyond is something leaders must do. They call for leaders to continue to work toward racial and gender inequity and to be conscious of their role in effecting change.
