Diversity training and consulting

The need / what is the problem?

Gender diversity (e.g., defining quotas for women membership in boards) is one manifestation of diversity, but culturally or ethnically diverse, generation diverse are other examples that makes diversity relevant and important for any management of modern organizations. Diversity from a demography point of view can be simplified through six factors, namely gender, age, education, religion, nationality and language. All these factors being potential for diversity may play as contributors for success.

All these exist and cannot be ignored or underestimated. Hence the questions is are we waiting diversity to become a problem or are we willing to make it a weapon for the future.
