MCKINSEY & COMPANY – DIVERSITY MATTERS REPORT
For several years McKinsey & Company has been developing research and initiatives on the topic of diversity in the workplace. The first report, “Women Matter”, published in 2007, identified a positive relationship between corporate performance and elevated presence of women in the workplace in several Western European countries, including the UK, France, and Germany. McKinsey has since expanded the focus of its research on the relationship between performance and diversity to include diversity in race and ethnicity and sexual orientation as well as gender.
