The Value of Employment for People with Disabilities Around the World
Author: Renáta Tichá
Publisher: Cambridge Scholars Publishing
ISBN: 1036407594
Category : Social Science
Languages : en
Pages : 410
Book Description
Receiving education and training that lead to a meaningful job, having a career, and being a valued contributor to a professional environment is taken for granted by many. Historically, however, people with disabilities have had limited opportunities to engage in employment due to discrimination, ableism, and low expectations despite the fact that employment is a basic human and civil right. This book is intended to build awareness and inspire action on the part of chief executive officers, human resource managers, and supervisory personnel to facilitate employment opportunities for people with disabilities. It will be of interest to policy makers and other professionals who support people with disabilities as part of their responsibilities in labor and social service ministries, vocational rehabilitation service providers, and employment service providers. The book is written by authors with backgrounds in a variety of disciplines related to the employment of people with disabilities across North America, Europe, Asia, Africa, and Australia.

Handbook of Research on Promoting an Inclusive Organizational Culture for Entrepreneurial Sustainability
Author: Perez-Uribe, Rafael Ignacio
Publisher: IGI Global
ISBN: 1668452189
Category : Business & Economics
Languages : en
Pages : 420
Book Description
In recent times, there have been many changes to global work environments that have highlighted the importance of prioritizing an inclusive, equitable, and diverse organizational culture and highlighted the relevance of the decisions that companies make in the present and how they affect their future. This reality contemplates creating an inclusive culture that values diversity and fosters trust, openness, and mutual support to build high-performance teams made up of diverse skills, cultures, and experiences. The Handbook of Research on Promoting an Inclusive Organizational Culture for Entrepreneurial Sustainability explains how proper management of diversity, in all aspects of people’s lives, turns differences into a source of opportunity. It discusses the modern forms of employment and management concepts adapted to the times, allowing people to use their identification and skills successfully in a meaningful way, regardless of their nationality, race, ideas, age, and gender. Covering topics such as equitable climates, socio-intercultural entrepreneurship, and corporate social responsibility, this major reference work is an excellent resource for entrepreneurs, human resource managers, business leaders and executives, government officials, students and faculty of higher education, librarians, researchers, and academicians.

Minorities in Entrepreneurship
Author: Glenice J. Wood
Publisher: Edward Elgar Publishing
ISBN: 1781002428
Category : Business & Economics
Languages : en
Pages : 229
Book Description
'In their powerful presentation of Minorities in Entrepreneurship, the authors go beyond the traditional definitions of entrepreneurship to enhance our understanding of minority groups whether they be younger, older, women, ethnic, immigrant, LGB, disabled or indigenous. The book provides a new perspective on the driving forces in becoming a business owner and the "push" and "pull" factors within and across groups. Enhanced by in-depth case studies of members in each group, the study is a valuable contribution to the understanding of all venture owners, a rich reference source for scholars, and a worthwhile book of readings for students in the fields of entrepreneurship and gender and diversity.' Dorothy Perrin Moore, The Citadel in Charleston, South Carolina, US 'There are books on minorities and there are books on entrepreneurship, but there are no books combining the two and amongst a wide range of minorities in society. This truly is a novel and innovative work, and should be essential reading for all interested this topic.' Cary L. Cooper, CBE, Lancaster University Management School, UK Although there is an expanding body of literature on the characteristics, aspirations, motivations, challenges and barriers of mainstream entrepreneurs, relatively little is known about whether these findings can be applied to the entrepreneurial activities of minority groups. This book addresses this short-fall and presents an international review of the characteristics, motivations and obstacles of eight minority groups: younger; older, women; ethnic; immigrant; lesbian; gay and bisexual, disabled; and indigenous entrepreneurs. The expert contributors discover enormous variability between these minority groups, such as in the motivators that either 'pushed' or 'pulled' individuals into an entrepreneurial venture, as well as diverse attitudes toward 'success': some groups wanted to achieve financial security others wanted to enhance their sense of self-worth, or to change existing social and economic circumstances. However, some striking similarities were noted: initial disadvantage often created a powerful impetus to starting up a business venture, and accessing finance was extremely difficult for many. Including comparative cross cultural data and case studies on the various minority groups reviewed, both post graduate students and undergraduate students studying entrepreneurship will find this book an invaluable resource. In addition, it will also be of interest to policy makers, governments and all those who wish to comprehend the nature of small business ownership for a wide range of minority business owners.
