Intersectionality and Crisis Management: A Path to Social Equity is a groundbreaking book that seeks to integrate the discourse of social equity into crisis management while exploring the potential of a new tool, the Integrative Crisis Management Model. In the complex and interconnected world of leadership and management, where decisions are made in real-time and under constant media scrutiny, the pervasive availability of news on all platforms and devices creates a lingering sense of anxiety about the inevitability of danger. Crisis, therefore, presents a unique opportunity to examine management practices and identify deficiencies that can lead to innovative approaches to business.

The book brings together a diverse range of contributing authors, who are esteemed experts in their respective fields, as well as practitioners, students, and junior scholars, in a creative and engaging discourse about equity. By bringing these diverse voices together in one volume, the book offers a unique opportunity to generate new insights and perspectives.

Intersectionality serves as a powerful framework for understanding how categorizations of people contribute to the social constructs of discrimination and oppression. Each chapter in the book explores intersectionality in different contexts, such as healthcare, nonprofit management, and human resources, and is accompanied by thought-provoking discussion questions. The book is designed to be valuable for classroom use, as well as for practitioners and scholars who are interested in incorporating more intersectional thinking into their work.

In conclusion, Intersectionality and Crisis Management: A Path to Social Equity is a must-read for anyone who is committed to promoting social equity and creating a more inclusive and just society. By integrating the discourse of social equity into crisis management and exploring the potential of the Integrative Crisis Management Model, the book offers a valuable roadmap for leaders and managers seeking to navigate the complex and rapidly changing world of today.
