A Manager's Guide to Sexual Orientation in the Workplace Hardcover - 1995
by Bob Powers; Alan Ellis
For the first time ever, managers have a tool that will enable them to effectively grapple with the controversial, and sometimes explosive issues surrounding sexual orientation in the workplace. This guide provides managers with the means to effectively communicate the company message of openness and inclusion throughout the work force, and teach everyone to celebrate the riches of diversity.
First line
Ignorance may be bliss in some settings, but in the corporate world, ignorance, or a lack of knowledge, is one of the two prime reasons organizations fail (see the Handbook of Human Performance Technology, 1992, Jossey-Bass, San Francisco).
From the rear cover
A Manager's Guide to Sexual Orientation in the Workplace provides managers with the knowledge, skills, and resources to foster higher productivity through an inclusive environment. Managers are introduced to thirteen diverse workers who relate their remarkable life histories about being gay, bisexual, and heterosexual in the workplace. They are then shown how sexual orientation impacts workplace productivity and how a welcoming and inclusive work environment results in positive performance. To initiate the inclusive environment, managers are provided with methods and techniques proven successful in workplaces throughout America and the world. Bob Powers and Alan Ellis offer clear guidelines to select diversity-sensitive employees, define their responsibilities in the workplace, set performance expectations, provide feedback and recognition, and reward success to cultivate the inclusive work environment. As workers shift their energies away from "hiding" their sexual orientation, workplace productivity increases to achieve and exceed goals and objectives.
