Overview

Denise Hamilton helps listeners unpack their preconceived notions and reimagine a world that's better than just “inclusive.”

Denise Hamilton has always believed in the power and promise of a word she learned as a schoolgirl: “indivisible.” In her groundbreaking debut, she challenges listeners to move beyond current notions of diversity and inclusion to build communities, workplaces, and relationships that live up to that word. She urges us to reexamine long-held beliefs and habits and to dismantle hierarchies that shape our current society. If we want to repair the fraying stitches that bind us together, if we want to build a truly close-knit collective, we cannot settle for our present approach. It's time to recalibrate and identify a goal higher than inclusivity-the goal of indivisibility.

As a nationally recognized DEI leader, Hamilton shares accessible, personal stories and offers self-examination questions, intentional action steps, and journal prompts. While the audiobook has a focus on business and leadership, the lessons within can transform our professional and personal lives.


**This audiobook edition includes a downloadable PDF that contains charts and graphs from throughout the book.

Editorial Reviews

Frances Frei

"Indivisible is ultimately an optimistic book, based on the premise that we can all be leaders in making a more equitable world. Denise Hamilton’s stories, facts, and compelling observations remind us that, in order to move forward, we have to first decide not to stay where we are."

Alexandra Carter

"Indivisible, Denise Hamilton’s triumphant debut work, is an immediately actionable resource for creating the teams, companies, and country we all want."

Kathryn Finney

"Indivisible by Denise Hamilton is an insightful and timely exploration of the transformative power of unity in a world filled with division. With compelling narratives and practical strategies, Hamilton's book is a compelling call to action, demonstrating how embracing our differences can be the key to forging a more inclusive and resilient future for all."

CNN’s Van Jones

"This is a book you cannot miss. Denise Hamilton invites us into the next evolution of American society and arms us with the tools to be successful as we move into a more prosperous future. She replaces half measures with a bolder, broader vision. You feel her love and optimism in every word. She couples what to do with how to do it. This book is a must read."

Eric Ries

"Denise Hamilton’s Indivisible is a masterclass in creating powerful organizations where everyone has a sense of belonging. For anyone looking to build a stronger, more dynamic team that fosters innovation and growth, this is a must read."

Adam Grant

"In a world dominated by division, this book is a force for unity. Denise Hamilton never fails to make me stop and think—she’s a master of injecting complexity into oversimplified issues and shifting the diversity and inclusion conversation from outrage to insight. Indivisible is an extremely powerful, surprisingly practical read."

STARRED REVIEW Booklist

"Inclusion strategist Hamilton delivers guidance that has value beyond corporate offices; it is guidance for the business of living. Startling contrasts in lived experiences and shared anecdotes illuminate the importance of being indivisible (interdependent) versus inclusive ("you may join us"). An example of the exploration and self-examination Hamilton encourages is the evolving use of language, specifically the increase in the use of gender-neutral terminology such as property owner instead of landlord or workforce rather than manpower. Each of the 17 chapters concludes with an “Ask Yourself” section for guided reflection. Much of this work focuses on going beyond informing, and prompts deep contemplation to “remove the shame of not knowing.” This complex, challenging content is readily accessible and engaging due to Hamilton’s expertise and commitment. Citing the need to be a courageous agent of change with certainty that change can happen as well as creativity and consistency, Hamilton delivers the truism that “this book is the beginning of the work, not the end.” Indivisible carries a message of vital importance to the business community and beyond. Highly recommended for all library collections, including those serving high-school students. A perspective-broadening resource for social and business studies."
