The ability to manage this diversity successfully has become a basic strategy for corporate survival. Beyond Race and Gender supplies a sorely needed Action Plan, extensive case studies, and a series of tough questions and answers to get readers thinking deeply about what elements are blocking the full use of the human talent available. In this visionary work, R. Roosevelt Thomas, Jr., rouses organizations to face the facts and embrace the challenges--because it is the only efficient way for America to compete and prosper.

3.0 out of 5 stars
No Solutions,
By J.J. Kilroy "devon_maloy" (Dallas, TX USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Beyond Race and Gender: Unleashing the Power of Your Total Workforce by Managing Diversity (Paperback)
Pretty good overall. Only a very high level overview, that doesn't really go "Beyond Race and Gender." All talk and no solutions. I don't think Roosevelt bases his conclusions on sound statistics, either.
