Μεταπτυχιακό σε Human Resources (HR), Diversity (MA) - Karls

Diversity is a matter of existence for both society and organizations, as it is the main source of their strengths and resources. Internal diversity is an important driver of creativity, innovation, and transformation. This dynamic also includes processes of discrimination, conflict, and negotiation.

Dealing with diversity therefore has two aspects: one related to justice, fairness, and inclusion; and another related to collaboration, sustainability, and performance. The former concerns methods for uncovering discrimination and dismantling systems of oppression and inequality; the latter focuses on strategies for promoting dialog, equality in power relations and in the distribution of resources, productive cooperation, and synergy.

Accordingly, in the first semester of this specialization in Human Resources (HR) and Diversity, you will gain an in-depth insight into diversity, inclusion, and feminism theory to grasp the social functions of identity and, in particular, collective and intersecting identities (e.g. gender, sexual orientation, age, physical and mental ability, ethnic and cultural background), as well as to develop the ability to identify processes of inclusion and exclusion.

In the second semester, you will discuss diversity factors in organizational cultures and develop HR perspectives on how to deal with them responsibly. In the third semester, you will model creative and future-oriented leadership concepts to moderate sustainable processes that enable the diversity potential within organizations and society at large to unfold.
