Publish Your Purpose announces Holistic Leadership by Deborah D. Vereen and Frank Miles, a practical guide to integrating DEIB into organizational culture.

Hartford, CT, March 11, 2026 --(PR.com)-- Publish Your Purpose is proud to announce the release of Holistic Leadership: How to Weave Diversity, Equity, Inclusion & Belonging Principles into Your Organization’s DNA by Deborah D. Vereen and Frank Miles, which was released in February 2026. Available in hardcover (ISBN 979‑8‑88797‑202‑2), paperback (ISBN 979‑8‑88797‑203‑9), and eBook (ISBN 979‑8‑88797‑204‑6), with Library of Congress Control Number 2025913750, this timely and practical guide offers leaders a clear, accessible path for embedding DEIB into the fabric of any organization.
In these polarized times, when the words Diversity, Equity, Inclusion, and Belonging are often reduced to buzzwords or used as political flashpoints, Holistic Leadership provides a grounded, business‑minded examination of what meaningful leadership requires. Vereen and Miles emphasize that meeting people and organizations where they are is the only viable path forward in today’s divided climate. Their approach helps leaders understand what DEIB truly is—and what it is not—supported by an extensive glossary that clarifies terminology frequently misunderstood or misrepresented.
The authors guide readers in shifting from compliance‑based frameworks, such as EEO, to human‑centered leadership rooted in civility, respect, and kindness - the three Inclusion Enablers. They explore the four principles of Diversity, Equity, Inclusion, and Belonging, the relationship between laws and societal norms, and the critical distinction between Equality and Equity, an understanding essential for long‑term, growth‑minded success. The book also illustrates what it means to cultivate a sustainable Culture of Belonging and how such a culture drives systemic and economic transformation. Throughout, Vereen and Miles show readers how to become well‑informed DEIB advocates, even when this work is not part of their formal job description.
Whether readers are beginning their DEIB journey or seeking to deepen their impact, Holistic Leadership offers a concise, highly accessible guide designed for real‑world application. It shows leaders how to build momentum, create meaningful motion, and lead with purpose. This is not theory. This is how you do it.
