"Diversity is an inescapable reality for any corporation with more than 100 people, wherever it's located," says David Thomas, a professor at Harvard Business School. "Where 10 or 20 years ago, companies were asking, 'Will we be diverse?' Today they must ask, 'How should we use diversity as a resource to be more effective as a business?'"

Of course, not every country has the same mores or views about diversity. IBM does business in some countries where men aren't at all accustomed to reporting to a female boss -- or for that matter to a male boss who comes from a lower caste or economic class. "We have to be in compliance with a country's laws and sensitive to its local customs, but we also want the very best talent," says Mr. [Ted Childs]. "So wherever we operate we say, 'We have corporate values that dictate how we're going to run the business -- and if that creates discomfort for you, you shouldn't work here,' " he adds.

What's more, new businesses in developing nations -- which are customer targets for IBM -- are headed mostly by non-white men or women. In the Arab world, where there's a misconception that women don't participate in the workplace, IBM's client base has more and more women leaders of private companies, as well as in government and academia. "If you want to compete globally, you have to understand that 80% of the globe isn't white and 50% isn't male," says Luke Visconti, co-founder of Diversity Magazine, which surveys the diversity efforts and progress of Fortune 1000 firms.
