Using data — not dogma — to help leaders foster inclusive workplaces and reimagine the role of religion and science in public life

“Christians need a fresh vision of how to integrate their faith with work, one that expands beyond the tired categories of evangelism, ethics, and excellence. Working for Better points that way forward with a thoughtful combination of theology, data, and narrative.”

— Curtis Chang, host of the Good Faith podcast and author of The Anxiety Opportunity and The After Party

“The book is a must-read for scholars, students, and management professionals who want to understand the contours of religion in the workplace today.”

— Carolyn Chen, author of Work Pray Code, Professor Ethnic Studies, Co-Director of the Berkeley Center for the Study of Religion
