Abstract

Organisations, as well as individuals and societies, continue to struggle with the complexity associated with unprecedenteddemographic changes. Workforce ageing and increasing age diversity are not transient phenomena, and their implications are compounded by the combination of several global trends like workers' increased mobility and migration, as well as increasing gender and ethnic differences. This demographic pressure compels organisations to question conventional ways of management thinking, doing and being in order to capitalize on the benefits of an age-diverse workforce.This volume bridges theoretical and empirical approaches in order to illuminate the challenges of valuing employees at any point in their professional lives, from youth to retirement. Embracing perspectives that span from the individual to the organisational levels of analysis, the book explores the two distinct but intertwined phenomena of workforce ageing and increasing workforce age diversity.The volume is divided into two parts. Contributions in the first section raise questions about the meanings of age and age diversity, as well as how and when age matters in organisations. The second part of the book examines the role andcontribution of HR practices in forging an age-inclusive workplace.

Abstract

Die Autorin zeigt, wie Diversity und Inclusion (D&I) in Unternehmen gelebt und umgesetzt werden kann und bietet Lösungen für typische Herausforderungen, wie unklare Prioritäten oder ein erfolgreiches Stakeholder-Management. Ein Schwerpunkt liegt dabei auf praktischen Tools, die helfen, den Ansatz auf die speziellen Bedingungen in der eigenen Organisation zu übertragen. Nach einem Überblick über aktuelle Ansätze, maßgebliche globale Trends und den Forschungsstand, demonstriert sie auf Basis eines klassischen Change-Management-Modells, welche Aspekte im Rahmen der Planung und Umsetzung berücksichtigt werden müssen, wie sich Mitstreiter gewinnen lassen und wie eine erfolgreiche D&I-Strategie entwickelt und implementiert werden kann. Der Inhalt - Vielfalt und Chancengleichheit: ein Über- und Rückblick - Der Business Case: Warum sich Organisationen verändern müssen - Nicht unbedingt die „Besten“, oft machen die „Gleichsten“ Karriere - Mythos Vorstandsunterstützung; Warum es nicht hilft, D&I zur „Chefsache“ zu erklären - Wichtig ist entscheidender als „richtig“: Vielfalt und Chancengleichheit ist kein Job für Idealisten - Väter und Frauennetzwerke: Traditionelle Stakeholder erfüllen nicht die Erwartungen - Change Tools für Diversity und Inclusion Die Autorin Veronika Hucke hat mehr als 20 Jahre in internationalen High-Tech-Konzernen gearbeitet und hatte Führungsaufgaben in den Bereichen Diversity & Inclusion, Change-Management und Kommunikation inne. Als Inhaberin einer Unternehmensberatung unterstützt sie heute vor allem global tätige Unternehmen bei der Entwicklung und Implementierung ihrer D&I-Strategie. Sie hat umfassende Erfahrung darin, Maßnahmen zu entwickeln und zu realisieren, die nachhaltige Ergebnisse liefern. Für ihre Arbeit wurde sie mehrfach ausgezeichnet, zuletzt mit dem „Global HR Excellence Award“. Sie gehört zum Kollegium der „Diversity, Inclusion and Change Academy“ von „The Conference Board“ und war Mitglied des Executive Committees ihres „Diversity in Business Councils“.

Abstract

Whatever their industry of origin, all companies are facing the same challenge to a greater or lesser degree: globalization. It is becoming more and more evident that companies need to plan ahead and anticipate coming developments if they are to be successful in the future. Today, it is crucial to establish a solid competitive position in the global arena. There is no doubt that a corporate culture that is open to innovation and shaped by global thinking, plays a key role in this context. A culture in which representatives of different countries und cultures can come together, anticipating and understanding the cultural challenges, creates the foundation of any international business. A global view on intercultural management will be the key to successfully doing business in diverse cultural environments.

Abstract

This comprehensive, integrated teaching resource provides students with the tools and methodologies they need to effectively negotiate the multiple dynamics that emerge from difference, and to appropriately respond to issues of marginalization and social injustice.End-of-chapter questions encourage students to engage in difficult conversations, and case studies stimulate students’ awareness of real-world issues that emerge from diversity, helping students to develop the broad range of skills they need to mediate or resolve diversity issues as future professionals. Additional links, slides, multiple choice quizzes, and essay questions can be found online as a part of this book’s Instructor Resources.Written from an American perspective, the book not only covers the traditional topics of race, gender, ethnicity, and social class, but explores emerging trends around “isms” (racism, sexism) This second edition includes two new chapters: one addressing social identity diversity and leadership in the workforce, and the other examining under-representation of diversity in the scientific, technical, and film workforce. This edition also features an updated chapter on social justice as an emerging diversity paradigm; this includes a conceptual framework to advance the ideology of organizational social justice.
