Bringing together contributions from leading international researchers and lecturers in the field of diversity, this new core textbook introduces key concepts, research findings and practices to provide students with a comprehensive overview of diversity management. It adopts an integrative and practical approach throughout, providing real insight into how exclusion is created and maintained in organizations, and how it is being tackled by the European Union’s member states. Packed full of key term definitions, lively examples and easy to understand theory, this accessible text provides approaches to diversity and inclusivity which recognise the importance of organizational and individual considerations in historical, political, social and cultural contexts.
This is an ideal text undergraduate and postgraduate students studying modules related to managing diversity, gender and equality in organizations.
