Showing Up is a revolutionary step-by-step guide—by and for men—to end toxic masculinity and enact heart-based leadership, increase diversity, bolster the bottom line, and create a workplace culture where everyone wins.
The Time's Up, Me Too, and Black Lives Matter movements have sounded a wake-up—especially for men. Organizations worldwide now realize the critical importance of diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) for underrepresented people. It's abundantly clear: the default model of masculinity isn't working for anyone. But for a new and healthier infrastructure, for permanent and transformational shifts, we need a plan that includes men.
In Showing Up, Ray Arata details the proven methods he's shared with such companies as Verizon, Bloomberg, Moody's, Intel, Toyota, Hearst, and more, teaching men to
• Embrace healthy masculinity as a cornerstone of inclusionary leadership;
• Identify unhealthy masculine behaviors in the workplace—like mansplaining, manterrupting, and manopolizing;
• Adopt behavior modifications aligned with being an inclusive leader and ally;
• Incorporate specific language to use in healthy discussions; and
• Leverage power and position to elevate underrepresented groups.
Now it's your turn to show up.
