Managers, supervisors, and CEOs will welcome this new book. It deals head-on with an emerging global reality: culturally diverse people of both genders in the workplace. The new business environment demands that employees be selected, evaluated, and promoted on the basis of performance and competency, regardless of sex, race, religion, or place of origin. Affirmative action is now aimed at developing human potential, and Transcultural Leadership shows you how to effectively achieve this in your workplace. The concepts presented here can be applied universally. Diversity in business is becoming a worldwide phenomenon, and the key concepts for successful management of international companies are true throughout the world. The latest addition to Gulf Publishing Company's Managing Cultural Differences series, this breakthrough book fills a gap in management education and development. It is a practical manual designed to teach and encourage managers to lead and strengthen the human resources of any organization.

Empowering the Diverse Workforce

Transcultural Leadership

Lillian Comas-Diaz

In this book, twelve eminent Latina Psychologists illustrate how they practice gender- and culture-sensitive psychotherapy, counseling, research, pedagogy, social justice, and mentoring. They share how they create their own path in the midst of oppression – by becoming aware of the connection between their lives and their gendered, cultural, social, and political circumstances – and how they liberate themselves and those who seek their psychological services. Based on lived experiences, they reveal how they integrate a borderlands theory, a testimonio method, and an embodiment analysis into a Latina Feminist Psychology. More importantly, these Latina Psychologists offer easy-to-follow advice to help readers thrive while living in the cultural borderlands.

Thriving in the Cultural Borderlands

Latina Psychologists

Rosa Maria Gil

In a lively, anecdotal manner, the authors show how to balance old-world values with contemporary North America, whether the issue is juggling career and family demands, turning the traditional marriage into a partnership, awakening and accepting one’s own sexuality, seeking help with emotional problems outside the family, or learning to stand up for one’s feelings and rights. Filled with real-life success stories and wise, compassionate advice, The Maria Paradox details how any Latina can enjoy the best of both worlds and become her own person at last.
