They are then shown how sexual orientation impacts workplace productivity and how a welcoming and inclusive work environment results in positive performance.

Bob Powers and Alan Ellis offer clear guidelines to select diversity-sensitive employees, define their responsibilities in the workplace, set performance expectations, provide feedback and recognition, and reward success to cultivate the inclusive work environment.
