The Power of Diversity: Managing Inclusion for Global Sustainability (Hardcover) (ISBN-13: 9781957792606)

Diversity is the nature of humanity because the profiles of men and women have highly diverse features. The same applies to the structure, behavior and results of the groups they form, the institutions they create and the governance tools they use. This evidence has become an axiom of everything that concerns humanity. Globalization has brought people and all their differences together to act in a unique, dynamically diverse space in constant transformation. In the nineties, scientists such as Offerman and Gowing (IPD, 1996) researched the impact of diversity in corporate communities. The findings again confirmed that when managed, global megadiversity fosters innovation and therefore makes unprecedented contributions to the creation of the mechanisms that drive humanity to the highest levels of accelerated development. Diversity and inclusion management must be compulsory in all education systems so that men and women in their professional lives leverage this core competence.
