O knihe

Leading a Diversity Culture Shift in Higher Education offers a practical and timely guide for launching, implementing, and institutionalizing diversity organizational learning. The authors draw from several of their surveys and interviews with chief diversity officers to reveal the prevailing models and best practices for strengthening diversity practices within the higher-education community today. They complement this original research with an analysis of key contextual factors that shape the organizational learning process including historical legacy, geographic location, institutional mission and goals, and campus structures and politics. Given the substantive challenge of engendering a cultural shift for diversity in a university setting, this book will serve as a concrete primer for institutions seeking to develop a systematic and progressive approach to diversity organizational learning. Readers will be able to engage with provocative case studies that grapple with the current pressures emanating from diversity training and learn effective strategies for creating more inclusive environments. This book is a perfect resource for institutional leaders, administrators, faculty members, and key campus constituencies who are seeking transformational change, institutional success and stability in a diversifying global environment.
