DIVERSITY

La nueva tendencia de negocios.
Para los que no han escuchado este termino, aqui hay un concepto que obtuve de la pagina principal de HP en la seccion de diversidad:

"Diversity is the existence of many unique individuals in the workplace, marketplace and community. This includes men and women from different nations, cultures, ethnic groups, generations, backgrounds, skills, abilities and all the other unique differences that make each of us who we are."

Con esto dicho y a traves de una nueva susbcripcion mia a esta revista, les presento las 50 companias que aplican esta nueva estrategia de negocio, concepto o como quieran llamarlo a sus negocios:

MCDONALD'S FORMER CEO CHARLIE BELL DIES
44-Year-Old Exec Helped Turn Company Around
January 17, 2005

CHICAGO- McDonald's Corp.'s former president-CEO, Charlie Bell, died Jan. 16 of colorectal cancer, the company said. He was 44.

No hay mucho que decir.. el presidente una de las companias de mas crecimiento de la comida rapida muere justamente de eso: cancer al colon. Para los que no tienen mucho conocimiento de esta enfermedad, las causas son muy variadas, desde una mala alimentacion, uso de tabaco, hasta tenerlo de nacimiento en tu ADN. La situacion en todo caso es un poco curiosa dada la relacion comida rapida y la muerte de su presidente.

Aqui la nota.

Mr. Bell died in his native Sydney, Australia, after a seven-month battle with the disease. He is survived by his wife, Leonie, and a daughter, Alex.
"This is a tragic loss. Charlie Bell gave his all to McDonald's. Even during his hospitalization and chemotherapy, Charlie led this company with pride and determination," Andrew J. McKenna, chairman of McDonald's board of directors, said in a statement. "Now he leaves a remarkable legacy -- a legacy that the McDonald's system will benefit from for years to come."
