Reading a Book Doesn't Change a Workplace.

Teaching It Does.

You believe in equity.
You want to guide your team.
But these days, DEI feels like a legal landmine--and no one's giving you a clear, safe way forward.

That's where The Equity Edge and this guide comes in.

The Equity Edge Instructor Guide shows you exactly how to lead transformative conversations about equity in hiring--without fear, fluff, or making things worse.

What's Inside

  • A chapter-by-chapter breakdown of The Equity Edge

  • Bonus insights and commentary from author Jenn Tardy

  • Real-world prompts and examples that spark meaningful conversations

  • Facilitation tips for leading with clarity and care

  • Behind-the-scenes notes to help you bring each concept to life

The Real Transformation

You'll walk away equipped to:

  • Lead discussions around bias and equity–even under today's political scrutiny

  • Give your team the language they've been missing

  • Embed equity into hiring systems without creating harm

  • Activate the book's message--without Jenn Tardy needing to be in the room

No more "we read it, but nothing changed."
This is how you move from awareness to action.

Ready to Lead the Change?

This is your moment. Not to check a DEI box.

But to make equity a living, breathing part of your company’s culture.

What It’s Worth

Most companies spend $100,000+ on consultants to understand why they’re struggling with representation, retention, and bias in hiring.

This guide gives you a clear, step-by-step way to begin solving that—without the consultant price tag.

  • You could guess your way through it.

  • Or you could use a ready-made framework that already speaks the language of your workplace.

This Isn’t a Book Club Guide.

It’s a Leadership Tool.

This guide gives you:

  • The words to speak up

  • The structure to teach others

  • The confidence to lead in times where many are silent
