Reviews

'This book embraces the diversity of diversity; it deals with dimensions rarely covered within the literature. It also gives a significant contribution to the existing literature in diversity management by tackling several angles (global view, critical view, ...), many countries (Balkan countries, Denmark, France, Finland, Germany, ...) and a few disciplines (business, social psychology, ...).' Sebastien Point, Strasbourg Business School, France 'A very interesting book about diversity management, which discusses new challenges in this field transversality and intersectionality but also naming and non-naming, multiple identities, conflicting forces for convergence and divergence, how to impose differences without favouring exclusion and finally how power processes in diversity management can hinder systemic change of inequalities in organizations. It also covers not very well documented countries in diversity management as the Balkan area.' Annie Cornet, University of Liege, Belgium 'Stefan Groschl's book Diversity in the Workplace is a tour de force of the field of diversity at work. It draws on the leading international scholars on a variety of topical themes of diversity management. It is a must read for anyone interested in diversity, whether in the public or private sector.' Cary L. Cooper, Lancaster University Management School, UK 'Diversity is a founding value at L'Oreal. It lies at the very heart of our activity. Teams that are diversified at all levels and in all areas allow for greater creativity and enable us to develop products that fit with their expectations. The multinational perspectives provided in this textbook help companies to better understand the complexity of diversity and leverage it as a real lever for performance.' Jean Claude Le Grand L'Oreal Corporate Diversity Director. 'Diversity has always been one of Deloitte key success driver, as we base the value added we create for our stakeholders on the creativity that arouses from the diversity of our talents. This collection of different ideas and perspectives about diversity illustrates the richness of the concept of diversity. It highlights the challenges and opportunities of workforce diversity and its added value to an organization when managed well, providing thus interesting thinking material for companies diversity management programs.' Amadou Raimi,Chairman of the Board, Deloitte France and Vice Chairman of the Global Board, Deloitte Touche Tohmatsu
