IBM的蓝色代表冷静、智慧和自由。员工充分享有人权和自由。还表现在:残疾人、妇女(不是故意把这两个类别的人放在一起)等很受尊重、各民族、种族、宗教派系、性取向人士完全平等。没有任何党和政治团体,员工不会因为家庭出身、年龄、性别、隐私、政治面貌和生活作风等问题对工作产生影响。我觉得对中国企业塑造企业文化有些借鉴意义。比如今天收到公司的一个技术专题讲座介绍,下面是演讲者的自我简介:

Prior to that role, he was a project executive for IBM's Product Lifecycle Management work on the US Navy's DD(x) next-generation naval destroyer program. From 2000 - 2003, Rob was the executive leader of a worldwide team that managed the Passport Advantage program, the means by which customers of all sizes purchase IBM software products in volume.
Rob's twenty-year career with IBM has provided a variety of experiences, from living and working in Sydney, Australia where he led the sales team for IBM's connected e-business products and solutions in the Asia/Pacific markets, to managing the worldwide sales and market planning for a technology which IBM decided not to pursue. Rob has also lived and worked in London as Consulting Manager for Large Account Software Sales in Europe, the Middle East, and Africa. In the early 1990s, Rob was manager of Developer Support Programs for IBM's Personal Software Products. He had teams in Boca Raton, Florida and Atlanta, Georgia who assisted large and small developers working with OS/2, LAN Systems, pen-based computing, and multimedia. In 1987, Rob joined IBM and worked in human factors / usability. In the System Design and Architecture group, he helped define the long-term vision for IBM's software products. Rob also sold IBM software to the media industry in New York City, was "on loan" to a large US television network, and was in charge of customer partnerships, working on the early customer involvement program for Distributed Systems Services. He also served as technical assistant to the Director of Software Development Programs, developing presentations and working with application developers.
Since 1993, Rob has been actively involved in a corporation-wide diversity task force, addressing issues important to IBM's GLBT employees. IBM announced domestic partner benefits for its US employees in September, 1996 and added "sexual orientation, gender identity and gender expression_r" to its global nondiscrimination policy in 2003.
