Diversity Management Is the Key to Growth: Make It Authentic

 

 

“Diversity management is the key to growth in today’s fiercely competitive global marketplace.  No longer can America’s corporations hide behind their lack of cultural intelligence.  Organizations that seek global market relevancy must embrace diversity – in how they think, act and innovate.  Diversity can no longer just be about making the numbers, but rather how an organization treats its people authentically down to the roots of its business model.   In today’s new workplace, diversity management is a time-sensitive business imperative.

To better understand this fast-changing terrain, I reached out to three notable diversity executives — pioneers within their respective industries – to share their insights and perspectives regarding the future of diversity and some of the new best practices that will allow diversity to play a more strategic role in cultivating sustainable business growth:

  • Dr. Rohini Anand, Chief Diversity Officer, Sodexo
  • Ron Glover, Chief Diversity Officer, IBM
  • Kathy Hannan, National Managing Partner, Diversity & Corporate Responsibility, KPMG LLP”
