Diversity and Inclusion Book Club

You are invited to join our Book Club - brought to you by the Diversity and Inclusion Office, Materiel Group, National Defence. We know that knowledge is power and books have the ability to expand our awareness. Let’s read and discuss together some important themes around diversity, inclusion, equity and belonging.

Including a Book Club into our organization has many benefits and everyone is welcome to join. A Book Club is a small but impactful way to continue courageous conversations and encourage more members in our organization to lean in and learn, un-learn and take action together.

Our Book Club is our commitment to continue to make time and space for important conversations. A Book Club creates an intentional space and time to discuss topics related to diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) in the workplace

The Benefits to Joining the Book Club

  • A Book Club builds our organization as a learning organization in which people continuously grow and develop.
  • This fun activity is an easy and inspiring way to share information and develop employees at work. In a book club, our members collectively learn new concepts and new ways of doing activities that they can apply in their workplace.
  • Developing a consistent set of book club discussion questions enables employees to apply the concepts on the job. The same three questions will be used for all our Book Club discussions.
  • It builds camaraderie, comfort, and teamwork in the group of team members who attend. It is a team-building activity that works in tandem with more formal activities.
  • When members of an organization learn the same concepts, by reading the same book, they share the same language and have heard the same ideas. It makes the application and adoption of the ideas and concepts more easily and seamlessly into the workplace.

The Details

Together we will read 6 books a year and explore the following questions:

  • What challenged you in the book?
  • What did you enjoy about the book?
  • And, how do you relate what you read to our organization?

The Book Club discussion will take place in an online discussion format during a scheduled L1 Diversity and Inclusion Working Group Meeting. Smaller break out rooms will be created to have meaningful conversations. The Book Club also gives our members the opportunity to step up and practice leadership roles such as leading a group discussion and sharing their thoughts on the discussion questions.

Everyone is welcome to join The Book Club. L1 Working Group members can invite their team members to participate.
