About this title

Review:

In the second of two volumes on management and diversity, business scholars from several countries discuss diversity, competence, performance, and creativity; diversity categories and discrimination: some critical reflections; and socio-political issues on diversity management and perspectives. Their topics include conducting a diversity policy as a management change agent: a key issue to an organization's performance, when freedoms collide: competing claims for religious rights and sexual orientation equality at work and beyond, generational diversity in organizations: a meta-analysis, trade unions and social dialogue: a challenge for diversity management, and diversity management as a career: the professional identity of diversity managers as a multi-level and political construct.
