Guest lecture of Prof. Mustafa Özbilgin: "Global Diversity Management", 
November 6th 2008, 18.15-20.00, University of St. Gallen, Room 09-012

Following the publication of "Workforce 2000", 'diversity management' has 
become one of the most uttered words in both business and academic circles 
alike. Today, global diversity management has become an imperative for 
multinational organizations. One of the main influences encouraging global 
diversity management has been the expansion of the national laws and 
international policies on elimination of discrimination. However, while 
there is extensive national variation in interpretation and implementation 
of equal opportunities laws and practices, diversity management is an 
expressly American concept.  Arguing that national and domestic 
considerations of diversity management are insufficient to explain the 
challenges individuals, organizations and countries are facing, Prof. 
Özbilgin will talk about the key global influences on the choice of mode 
in global diversity initiatives.
