Organizing Inclusion brings communication experts together to examine issues of inclusion and exclusion, which have emerged as a major challenge as both society and the workforce become more diverse. Connecting communication theories to diversity and inclusion, and clarifying that inclusion is about the communication processes of organizations, institutions, and communities, the book explores how communication as an organizing phenomenon underlies systemic and institutionalized biases and generates practices that privilege certain groups while excluding or marginalizing others. Bringing a global perspective that transcends particular problems faced by Western cultures, the contributors address issues across sub-disciplines of communication studies, ranging from social and environmental activism to problems of race, gender, sexual orientation, age and ability. With these various perspectives, the chapters go beyond demographic diversity by addressing interaction and structural processes that can be used to promote inclusion. Using these multiple theoretical frameworks, Organizing Inclusion is an intellectual resource for improving theoretical understanding and practical applications that come with ever more diverse people working, coordinating, and engaging one another.The book will be of great relevance to organizational stakeholders, human resource personnel and policy makers, as well as to scholars and students working in the fields of communication, management, and organization studies.

Drawing on expertise from communication scholars who examine resilience within and across individual, relational, group/team, organizational, inter-organizational, and community levels, this handbook provides a wide-ranging resource for theory building, empirical investigations, and practical applications.Chapters in this handbook bring awareness to how resilience is constituted through human communication processes. As a baseline, Part I begins with chapters that explicate and conceptualize resilience as a process that shapes and reflects communication behavior at multiple levels. In Part II, chapters focus on micro communication processes in the enactment of resilience at an interpersonal level in domains such as close relationships, families, and small groups. In Part III, attention shifts toward examining resilience processes in professional domains within and among organizations. Part IV considers macro communication processes, looking at how communities can build resilience, sustainability, and engagement through communal activities that cultivate strong networks and promote the health and safety of the community All chapters feature a discussion of practical implications for policy investments and/or interpersonal interventions for building and maintaining sustainability and resiliency.This handbook is a useful resource for scholars and advanced students in communication studies, social psychology, sociology, human development, public policy, and family sciences.
