The Programme for the Practice of Diversity Management is a collaborative arrangement between the Department of Immigration and Multicultural and Indigenous Affairs (DIMIA) and the Australian Centre for International Business (ACIB) funded through DIMIA's Productive Diversity Partnership Programme. It aims to meet the practical needs of business by developing a business case for productive diversity, providing business models for diversity management, and creating toolkits and checklists for assessing diversity. This business model focuses on the differences between legislative compliance and strategic diversity management approaches. The document demonstrates how Australian organisations can move from a compliance-based to a strategic-focused approach to diversity management. This model focuses on building on the existing compliance culture to develop a strategic approach.
