Abstract

Organizations of the twenty-first century demand managers who are culturally and gender and diversity sensitive, internationally focused, and capable of dealing with complexity. This means taking a different view of organizations and adding words to our management vocabulary in order to have a future-oriented way of seeing our responsibilities within organizations (Rosado, 2006). Gender and diversity management (GDM) is that paradigm which enables business to begin to effectively address the complexities of developing and sustaining a competitive and diverse workforce in a global economy. In this chapter we provide information and resources to assist managers in becoming highly competent and effective in engaging and managing a diverse workplace.
