DESCRIPTION:Presented by\nWelcome Sponsor\nPassions in Columbia\n\nDiversity Matters at WorkThe issue of diversity in the workplace is considered an important area of focus for many businesses today. Our January luncheon presenter\, Dean Joan Gabel\, will focus on one very good question: Why are we still having these discussions? It's been 40 years since the civil rights struggle\, so why is diversity such an on-going challenge for business and employees?Joan Gabel is Dean of the Robert J.

As a faculty member\, Dean Gabel has taught legal and ethical business classes\; led graduate global business seminars in Chile\, Australia and Argentina\; and also taught in Italy\, France and Egypt.
