This text takes students through a five-step learning process that teaches them how to manage diversity. It broadens their viewpoints, beliefs, and attitudes; promotes an understanding of widely varying and equally valid worldviews; and prepares future leaders to effectively collaborate with the diverse groups they will encounter in the work and market places.

Computer-based training modules—Provide self-paced training accessed through the intranet, internet, or CDs. Shows students how to 1) manage many individual differences to achieve success for an organization, 2) tap the potential for innovation and productivity; and 3) bridge gaps (racial, ethnic, sexual, gender, lifestyle, generational, and other) to connect with all types of people and build rewarding relationships.

A five-step learning process—Explores becoming aware of culture; learning about your own culture; recognizing your own stereotypes; learning about other cultures and lifestyles; and building interaction skills.

Powerful self-awareness activities and real-life case studies—Makes this new information fascinating, practical, and easy-to-apply to the workplace.
