Diversity Management
In 2000 we undertook a survey of Australian CEOs to assess their understanding of and commitment to Diversity Management. The results are reported and analysed in the following documents:
Capturing the Diversity Dividend (pdf): This document details the current views of 277 senior Australian executives with regards to diversity management. The report reveals a general lack of understanding of the issues involved and a failure to capture the diversity dividend. This diversity dividend is defined and the business case summarised.
Report to Business on Aboriginal Employment (pdf): This document details the current views of 227 senior Australian executives with regards to the employment of indigenous workers. The Survey found that policies and practices to capture the bottom line benefits of employing Aboriginal workers were largely absent.Importantly, the Survey did reveal a positive picture of corporate goodwill on which to build better policies and practices for managing Aboriginal employees more productively.
