Diversity and Discrimination in Business Ethics, Higher Education and Society

Beschreibung

This book engages the reader in a critical and necessary examination of the nature and range of behaviours that comprise diversity and discrimination in business and society. Discrimination and diversity are vitally important topics in the workplace as the manifestation of discriminatory practices leads to disfunction and a lack of effectiveness and efficiency in workplace settings. The chapters in this text not only conceptualize and clarify the meanings of diversity and discrimination but, as well, nicely unpack various debilitating features of the phenomenon and its various practices. This book is of particular interest to faculty teaching in schools of business, as well as researchers in business ethics and business management. As such, it provides an excellent venue for the exploration of the various negative impacts of diversity and discrimination.
