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.

This book delves into the consequences of rapid population aging for Mexico and U.S. Latinos, impacting various institutions, including families, the labor force, and healthcare systems. It examines in depth the causes and consequences of the increasing prevalence of cognitive impairment and dementia, especially early-onset decline in the Mexican-origin population. The book identifies resilience factors as critical to successful aging and health in the Mexican and Mexican-American populations from a transdisciplinary perspective. It also examines the diversity in the experiences of older adults with dementia and related disorders and that of their families in Mexico and the United States. The book also helps to better understand the levels of need and support capacity in both nations and the organizational contexts of long-term care in both countries. The ultimate goal of this sixth volume in the series on aging in the Americas is to identify critical sources of vulnerability and possible policy options for closing the gap in affordable and sustainable long-term care and financial wellbeing for low-resource populations living with dementia and other medical conditions in both countries. The volume presents new information, consensus data, potential venues for intervention, and action frameworks to advance current knowledge grounded in global aging health systems research of closing disparities in vulnerable populations at high risk of declining cognitive and physical health in two different political contexts. As such, the book provides a wealth of information for researchers, policy makers and professionals in the field of population aging.

International Organizations (IOs) are important actors within global social governance. They provide forums for exchange, contention and cooperation about social policies. Our knowledge about the involvement of IOs varies significantly by policy fields, and we know comparatively little about the specific roles of IOs in social policies. This volume enhances and systematizes our understanding of IOs in global social governance. It provides studies on a variety of social policy fields in which different, but also the same, IOs operate. The chapters shed light on IO involvement in a particular social policy field by describing the population of participating IOs; exploring how a particular global social policy field is constituted as a whole, and which dominant IOs set the trends. The contributors also examine the discourse within, and between, these IOs on the respective social policies. As such, this first-of-its kind book contributes to research on social policy and international relations, both in terms of theoretical substantiation and empirical scope.
