“Tone policing is defined as "a conversational tactic that dismisses the ideas being communicated when they are perceived to be delivered in an angry, frustrated, sad, fearful, or otherwise emotionally charged manner." Managers striving to create a workplace based on equity and inclusion must understand how tone policing silences members of marginalized groups and allows discrimination to persist.” https://www-businessinsider-com.cdn.ampproject.org/c/s/www.businessinsider.com/how-to-identify-and-help-stop-tone-policing-in-workplace-2020-8?amp

Any book recos for creatives/writers?
I mean, in terms of how ad agencies have “diversified” their teams in the past when forced to do so, this comes to mind. So yes, there is a hierarchy of hiring.
Do you mind taking a stab at what that hierarchy of hiring would be?
This question.
When it comes down to diversity, for agencies to take action effectively, they need to figure out first what kind of representation they are missing. It’s obvious that they are lacking women, black people and black women at the top but can we be more specific?
Those boxes aren’t gonna check themselves.

Illegal to be so blunt about it.
I honestly don’t think it’s a thought process. But, clearly the industry is dominated by white people. When people are referred in they tend to refer their friends who tend to look like them. My group is mostly male but we are more diverse. I’m one of three white people in a group of 10.
