Transgender Workplace Diversity: Policy Tools, Training Issues and Communication Strategies for HR and Legal Professionals

Dr. Paisley Currah, Associate Professor of Political Science at Brooklyn College, has hailed the book as "an essential resource for HR professionals." Dr. Currah, who is the Founder and Board Member of the Transgender Law and Policy Institute, and Editorial Board Member of GLQ: A Journal of Lesbian and Gay Studies and WSQ: Women's Studies Quarterly, as well as former Executive Director of the Center For Lesbian and Gay Studies, is well qualified to make this assessment. He has endorsed Dr. Weiss's text as a "clear, up-to-date, step by step guide for employers in supporting their transgender employees."

4Fantastic tool for everyone researching and implementing transition in the workplace  Oct 21, 2007
Dr. Jillian Weiss has produced a fantastic tool to help individuals in any or all sorts of organizations prepare for an employee's transtion at work. She covers all of the bases from the historical to those related to best practices, and she also takes time to speak to employees in transition about what they can/should to manifest a successful transition in their workplace. The only words of caution I'd offer are that, as Dr. Weiss is a lawyer, her book is heavy on the law. This is not necessarily a bad thing as it certainly sets the stage for the world in which we must operate when addressing these issues, but as is the case when one does this, the information might not be as current now as when Dr. Weiss wrote it. The other caution has to do with the models she presents for working through a transition. The models are valid, but an organization would have to massage them to make sure they fit with their organizational theme or ways of doing things. Other than those cautions, this is a fantastic and valuable tool...comprehensive, complete and easy to read.
