The New Leaders: Leadership Diversity in America, Jossey-Bass, 1992

Ann M. Morrison

This book draws on an extensive study begun in 1989 titled the GOLD Project (Guidelines on Leadership Diversity), which identified the most effective practices being used to foster diversity at the managerial level. It outlines the benefits and challenges of incorporating diversity into the business agenda and identifies the "best practices" that organizations can use to attract, retain, and advance nontraditional managers into senior management ranks.
