Equality and Diversity Stellenbosch Business School Skip to main content

Workplaces, and work in general, are transforming, as there is recognition of the greater diversity of employees and the need to value and develop all talents. This includes diversity by gender, age, race, disability and sexuality. In a South African context the need to transform society and organisations to address the inequalities of the apartheid era are a central driver. However, the fact that more women have entered formal paid work means that the inclusion of women in formal work has a marked impact on relationships with men and other women, at work and at home.

Organisations globally are increasingly pressed to ensure representation of all groups in in leadership positions and to make provisions for inclusion throughout all organisational levels and functions, yet, in Africa and South Africa, there is a paucity of research that culminates in both academic and policy impact with strong public engagement.
