In Go Together, workplace positivity expert Shola Richards suggests replacing divisiveness and incivility with a commitment to living, working, and leading together to positively change the world.

Go Together begins with the story of an impactful keynote speech Richards gave at a conference on workplace civility and a powerful concept: Ubuntu. A transcendent African philosophy, Ubuntu represent the power of human connectedness, compassion, kindness, and togetherness. It was the central theme of his speech on that day, and it also serves as the central theme of this book. He hopes that it becomes a rallying cry on his journey.

Among the subjects that Richards covers are developing empathy through curiosity; the beliefs that destroy connection (and what to do about them); the eight keys to Ubuntu at work; four ways you can cultivate more warmth as a leader; resilience and digging deep to keep moving forward; standing up to bigotry, hate, and intolerance; and more.

Richards writes, "The only thing that is required of us to stop the recurring pattern of the painful lessons of the past is to commit to go together from this point forward."

We go further when we go together

"The reality is that there has never been a problem of any significance in this world's history that was solved alone. The answer to our problems has been under our noses all of this time. Thankfully, it doesn't require speed, tireless effort, or rugged individualism. The solution simply requires that we must go together."

The illusion that we are separate from each other, more different than similar, is eroding our ability to work, live, and lead effectively. What if our global mindset was refocused on the powerful concept of Ubuntu--the African philosophy that represents the power of human connectedness, compassion, kindness, and togetherness? In this inspiring book, Shola Richards ( Making Work Work ) explores a concept for rethinking our personal, professional, and social lives. It's an affirming opportunity to go together in an effort to positively change the world.
