Diversity is very personal to Bob Moritz, U.S. chairman and senior partner at PricewaterhouseCoopers (PwC), No. 3 in The 2011 Fair360, formerly DiversityInc Top 50 Companies for Diversity. It’s also the key to sustainable global growth for an organization, he says.
Moritz spoke about why the subject matter is crucial to him and to PwC’s business globally. He says that viewing the world through a western lens causes missed opportunities for growth.
For example, he says, organizations “need to better understand the cultural factors underpinning the success of the women” in China and India as well as the “so-called other 90 percent” of new consumers and entrepreneurs from emerging countries that represent no single or easily definable ethnicity.
