In the past decade, however, there has been a growing awareness that sexual orientation is also a valid component of diversity. Even more importantly, the inclusion of this aspect of diversity and workplace education about it in organizational policy and programs are positive, revenue-enhancing actions for business organizations. This is true whether the organization in question is a municipal employer, a college\/university, a nonprofit, or a private sector employer.The first edition of Straight Talk About Gays in the Workplace was the only book available to address sexual orientation for employers concerned about this aspect of diversity. This new edition is still the only book to do so. The book's approach is positive and practical, offering not only the 'why’and the 'what', but also the 'how-to', with strategies and tools to improve any workplace relative to this part of human resources.
