When writing The Corporate Color Plan, McNeil had in mind to provide a resource to help various minorities and other similarly situated individuals understand how to navigate successfully through the snares and cares that are prevalent in white-collar corporate America, such individuals who have not known or had any affiliation with anyone in the corporate workplace and, consequently, would not know what to expect and how to handle what they would encounter in this type of working environment.

This writing is designed to focus on providing objective insight to the victims and the perpetrators of corporate racial injustice, which has been routinely overlooked and therefore made even more troublesome, because in the human existence, when trouble arises and is overlooked, it grows and becomes even more worrisome.

It is McNeil's hope that information within this book will reveal or peel back layers of falsehood about how race was dealt with during the 1960s through the 1990s, and no doubt, some of it, although very subtle, is still in practice today.
