MSPC 3140 - Managing Diversity

The majority of the U.S. corporations now perform an increasing portion of their business outside of their home country. In addition, the growing heterogeneity of the U.S. population makes the American workplace increasingly multicultural. This increasing complexity is compounded by differences of gender, sexual preference, age, physical challenges and lifestyles. To be an effective manager today, one must be aware of an enormous amount of public policy dealing with diversity in the work place. Yet, beyond learning to be compliant with the policies, the effective manager of the next century will be a global manager who can turn diversity into strength.
