- Summary
- Leadership and diversity in the organization are two primary topics dominating the health care industry today, and author Janice L. Dreachslin links the two using a dynamic and insightful approach. Diversity Leadership presents a five-part framework for the process of building a stronger organization through diversity: discovery, assessment, exploration, transformation, and revitalization.
- Dr. Dreachslin guides the reader through the above stages, interspersing explanatory text with case examples to illustrate specific points. She explains to a diverse audience the process of finding common ground and shared purpose in today's increasingly multicultural health care organizations.
