Abstract

This first case in a two-part series offers a look at diversity recruitment in a Fortune 500 company. With a white male champion at the helm, the A case shows how competent leaders do something interesting with diversity in a hiring system that has a strong pipeline of diverse talent for future consideration. Other Fortune 500 firms ask it to share recruiting best practices. But the head of recruiting wonders if his work efforts will change JPMC when he sees mostly male faces of on the cover of a recent (2008) Fortune magazine.
