Summary:

"Corporate America is in the throes of a major upheaval more radical than reengineering, more powerful and pervasive than reorganization. The issue is gay and lesbian rights, and its effects extend to every area of modern-day business, including corporate marketing, advertising, hiring, promotion, benefits, and political and charitable giving." "The New York Times called gay issues in corporate environments "the workplace issue of the '90s." Cracking the Corporate Closet provides the first comprehensive examination of 240 major corporations' track records on these issues. From the reception desk to the highest executive suites, from lobbying activities on Capitol Hill to advertising strategies in mainstream media, it exposes the attitudes, policies, and behaviors that reflect the greater changes of the current movement for social justice."--BOOK JACKET.
