Rezensionen / Stimmen
"As the world leader in the beauty business and a forerunner in Diversity, it was key for L'Oreal to contribute to one of the 1st academic studies defining the impact of Diversity on global leadership performance. The LEAD³ model developed by Dr. Sylvana Storey offers a brand new and unique perspective on how leaders of global organizations can be more efficient in implementing diversity strategies and actions. Besides, it is definitely a step forward in making Diversity management a behavioral and business imperative for effective leadership."
Jean-Claude Le Grand Director of International HR Development and Corporate Diversity Director at L'Oréal

"This excellent book provides a well-researched, very readable and eminently practical approach to understanding and managing diversity. In a globalised world, the increasinglyheterogeneous nature of the modern workforce can be a crucial source of competitive advantage, but only if leaders know how to manage that diversity. This book shows leaders what they need to know and what action to take. I would strongly recommend it to anyone who has a responsibility for or interest in leadership and diversity"
Professor Bernard Burnes Chair of Organisational Change, Stirling Management School, University of Stirling
