DiversityInc recently completed an in-depth exami- nation of data, demographics and best practices in 17 countries in Europe, Asia and the BRIC (Brazil, Russia, India and China) countries. Our data found a dramatic difference by region, as well as strong cultural attitudes that
shape how various countries view the notion of difference. Our full
findings are only available to the corporate sponsors of the global research but an abbreviated version is available here. Our 2012
global research, which involves extensive interviews and details
on best practices in these and other countries, is just getting under
way. For more information on the global-diversity research, visit
