Is RELIGION GOOD FOR BUSINESS? Is a religiously diverse workforce a
benefit or deficit? What is the appropriate role for RELIGION IN NEW
ZEALAND BUSINESSES AND WORKPLACES, and how does the Treaty of Waitangi
relate to the possible religious DIVERSITY DIVIDEND? Discover the
answers to these questions at the RELIGION AND BUSINESS SEMINAR!This
seminar explores the relationship between business and religion in the
contemporary world. Speakers will discuss the impact of increased
diversity with especial interest in the challenges and tensions
resulting from difference and the potential synergies and benefits of
religious diversity. Increased religious diversity is a key indicator
of wide-ranging and continual societal transformation, reflecting
political-economic and socio-cultural change. This leads to
unprecedented interactions between people of different religions and
cultures in novel settings and presents an urgent need to explore the
possibilities of these relationships and their implications.
