Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Diversity" has become the turn-of-the-century buzzword. Republican and Democratic leaders ritually chant "diversity is our strength" and corporate CEOs talk about the need to create a "workforce that looks like America." Most corporate mission statements now contain a clause on "valuing differences" and millions of employees have completed-or soon will undergo-some sort of "diversity training." Where did all this come from -and why? Who created diversity programs? How do they differ? How effective are these policies? Can they do more harm than good in organizations and in the wider society?During the past decade, sociologist Frederick R. Lynch studied the rise of a social policy movement that has successfully moved multiculturalism from universities and foundations into the courts, mass media, and the American workplace. The new diversity policies are future-oriented and market-driven, eclipsing "old" affirmative action debates about overcoming past discrimination against blacks.Based on more than six years of field research and hundreds of interviews, Lynch tracks the development and impact of different forms of diversity policies at dozens of consultant gatherings, in the business and professional literature and through in-depth case studies such as the Los Angeles Sheriff's Department and the University of Michigan, Ann Arbor. He profiles the major consultants who have powered the diversity machine, analyzes the benefits and drawbacks of various approaches to workplace diversity and provides numerous "you-are-there" samples of workshops, seminars, and conferences.The book is written for the general reader interested in public-policy issues, social scientists, and others interested in the origins and consequences of workplace diversity policies.

Book excerpt: The Diversity Dilemma is a no-holds-barred account of the impact of work on diversity on society, culture, community, and humanity. Dr. Thela Thatch, a Human Resource expert with over 25 years of working with Fortune 500 companies, explores the damage caused to people and organizational culture, all in the name of diversity. Thatch writes from the center of the diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) dilemma-where efforts to correct glaring issues simultaneously clash with the painful consequences of exposing them. This deep dive investigates whether the spotlight on DEI has truly moved the needle forward or further polarized and exacerbated pre-existing diversity and inclusion issues. The Diversity Dilemma is a call to action for leaders, HR professionals, and employees committed to diversity, equity, and inclusion. It serves as both a challenge and encouragement for those dedicated to driving lasting change in these areas. This book is for employee resource group leaders, human resource professionals, leaders, and followers who have given their all for the sake of equity and inclusion. Dr. Thatch provides an honest look into why the diversity movement and actions prompted by this understating have seen little modulation in the past two decades. After being tapped on the shoulder to lead DEI initiatives, Dr. Thatch looked at the damage done to people and organizational culture along the way-all done in the name of diversity.
