In recent years, particularly in the aftermath of the Stephen Lawrence inquiry and the revised Race Relations Act, all organizations have had to become more aware of diversity issues and the need to understand and, if necessary, change underlying attitudes. This timely new book provides a practical and sensible approach to dealing with this sensitive but vital issue. Providing clear guidelines, the book provides advice for dealing with a wide variety of issues including:

stereotyping;

prejudice;

racism;

sexism;

homophobia;

disability; etc.

With information on designing diversity training and advice on appropriate techniques to help bring about attitudinal change the book offers proven practical advice.
