DiversityInc

DiversityInc is the leading publication on diversity and business. DiversityInc's CEO and owner is Luke Visconti. Founded in 1998 as a web-based publication, our print magazine was launched in 2002. We reach over 1 million unique monthly visitors on DiversityInc.com and the magazine has circulation of over 340,000. DiversityInc.com has the largest dedicated career center for diverse professionals. We also publish DiversityIncBestPractices.com, a website dedicated to the in-depth knowledge of diversity management and best practices. Edited by Barbara Frankel, SVP and Executive Editor, DiversityIncBestPractices is also responsible for our monthly webinar content and our two annual national events. Built on the knowledge gained from producing our DiversityInc Top 50 Companies for Diversity, our benchmarking and consulting practice is the most rapidly growing area of our business (contact Luke Visconti).

Definition of Diversity Management

We define diversity management as the proactive management of race/culture, gender, orientation, disability and age to ensure equal outcome in relationships with employees, customers, investors and suppliers. We feel that the first two factors (race and gender) are the most important because they impact the treatment of the other three factors and are the most dominant loci of discrimination.

We believe that all people are created equally, and therefore, talent is distributed equally as well. We feel that an organization's management of diversity can be defined and judged in absolute metrics, most easily with human-capital statistics. A full explanation can be found in our Top 50 Companies for Diversity department.
