Diversity and Inclusion in Latin American and Caribbean Workplaces: Experiences, Opportunities, and Challenges

Editat de Carlos Tasso Eira de Aquino, Ronald R. Rojas
en Limba Engleză Hardback – apr 2020
This book explores the workplace experiences, opportunities, and challenges that emerge from the nuances of diversity and inclusion dynamics in Latin American and Caribbean countries. While the first part of the book addresses emerging frameworks on diversity and inclusion in Latin America by examining the effects of history, traditions, and cultural differences, the second part offers case studies of country-specific actualities. The authors highlight that despite the many shared cultural aspects of the region, it is not homogeneous and there are significant differences from place to place. It follows then that a variety of cultural differences implies a variety of approaches to workplace values, and more specifically, to the understanding of diversity and inclusion. Examining topics such as gender identity, disability, and racial gaps in countries throughout the region, this book offers scholars a fresh perspective on an emerging region.

Caracteristici

First scholarly study in English on diversity in this heterogeneous region Creates awareness of regional issues that can impact the successful operations of global/multinational corporations and organizations that have customers and suppliers in this part of the world Expands the discussion of diversity and inclusion to a regional perspective while arguing that D&I approaches from the US would be less effective in Latin America
