HR professionals are once again excited about a trendy US topic that allows them to refresh their English skills, the relevance of which has not yet been recognized in Europe, and even more so in Germany. The women’s and equality officers are mostly thrilled, although the true intention has not yet been understood. Diversity is becoming the magic word, and because of this, the accompanying term "management" is often completely omitted.
