Diversity in Organizations Summary

Diversity in Organizations: New Perspectives for a Changing Workplace by Martin M. Chemers

The changing demography of the workforce presents challenges and opportunities to individuals and to the organizations of which they are a part. This volume examines how diversity in organizations affords benefits such as a broader talent pool, but at the same time can lead to tension, misunderstanding and, at times, outright hostility.
