Reception

[edit]

Moneycontrol Review write about the book "The author covers various aspects of framing diversity and inclusion policies, finding talent from the LGBTQ community, creating a recruitment process that is LGBTQ friendly, creating an LGBTQ-friendly work culture at the workplace, and how to be an ally, whether you identify as LGBTQ or not."[4]

SheThePeopleTv said "Shahani alludes to these practices of tokenism in the book, about how these gestures are empty if changes are not brought about in institutional policies."[5]
