Dialogue on Diversity

This report is sponsored jointly by CED and the Fund for Corporate Initiatives, with the generous financial support of the Ford Foundation. The goal behind this joint project was to move the issue of corporate diversity beyond the theoretical - and occasionally ideological - context into one where the focus was on practical results in the workforce and the marketplace. More specifically, the aim was to have an open, frank discussion between CEOs and senior minority and women executives about the barriers to their corporate advancement.
