This article critiques an influential section of the research underpinning the claim that business benefits exist for an organisation with more diverse leadership. It focuses on three frequently cited reports by management consultants, McKinsey & Co (McKinsey 2015, McKinsey 2018, & McKinsey 2020). These reports have been, and continue to be, used to support the business case for diversity. Analysis of one aspect of McKinsey's research; - the dataset created by the company's consultants, suggests that it is not sufficiently representative of all listed companies in counties referenced in their reports. Consequently, McKinsey's conclusions are unreliable and cannot be generalised.

Managing Workplace Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion bridges the gap between social science theory and research and the practical concerns of those working in diversity, equity, and inclusion by presenting an applied psychological perspective. Using foundational ideas in the field of diversity, equity, and inclusion as well as concepts in the social sciences, this book provides a set of cognitive tools for dealing with situations related to workplace diversity and applies both classic theories and new ideas to topics such as United States employment law, teamwork, gender, race and ethnicity, sexual orientation, and other areas. Each chapter includes engaging scenarios and real-world applications to stimulate learning and help students conceptualize and contextualize diversity in the workplace. Intended for upper-level undergraduates as well as graduate students, this textbook brings together foundational theories with research-based and practical, real-world applications to build a strong understanding of managing diversity, equity, and inclusion in the workplace. This text also has its own companion website, which has been designed to give students and instructors a comprehensive look into Workplace Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion, offering case studies, practical applications, tests, and essay questions.

Essay from the year 2013 in the subject Business economics - Personnel and Organisation, grade: 62.0, University of Kent, language: English, comment: Excellent level of research and extensive reference list., abstract: In 1950 the global human population was 2.5 billion, in 2013 it has increased to 7.2 billion and by 2050 the UN predict it will reach 9.6 billion (The Economist, 2013). Shared with the statistic that since 2011, 52.1% (United Nations, 2012) of humans live in an urban area, highlighting the need for an increased and evolved ability to manage diversity. This global trend has created the most diverse workforce in modern times, generating pressure for companies, institutions and governments to implement practices which recruit, train, promote and retain individuals within the workplace (Bratton and Gold 2012; Kirton and Greene 2010). The strategic management of diversity in the workforce will be further discussed using a three stage approach, in order to fully analyse the pros and cons of a business case approach to diversity management. The first stage will have two discussion points; firstly defining diversity to create a common understanding of the topic. Secondly it's important to distinguish the difference between the terms of equal opportunity and diversity management, exploring how they have evolved from academic and practical perspectives. The second stage will focus on diversity management with particular emphasis on analysing the pros and cons of a business case approach. This critique will be supported by theories and contemporary resources to highlight the impact this approach can have on the stakeholders involved. The third stage will consider the implementation and industry type. This will highlight the limitation that by splitting diversity into different case types rather than focusing on an inclusive strategy causes fragmentation rather than concentrating on the individual contribution.

The current volume, the fourth in the series, provides a broad look at the meaning and understanding of diversity and inclusion in organizations. The contributors to this book look toward the future of D&I in organizations and the scholarship of these phenomena. This future focus references not only the content of the chapters-- which we hoped would offer new ideas, emphases, theories, and predictions-- but also to the contributors, emerging scholars who are the future of the field. Indeed, the chapters in this volume offer new perspectives on diversity in organizations, problematize existing perceptions and practices, and offer potential directions for change. Together, the questions and ideas offered these chapters generate a path forward for a thoughtful and nuanced view of D&I in future organizational science. In spite and because of their critiques of the status quo, the scholars and scholarship highlighted here provide hope for positive change.

This book analyzes the brand communities of major American multinationals across three industries: finance, tech, and consumer goods. It assesses how companies communicate their diversity approaches on social media (Twitter) and studies the ensuing perceptions of online users. By comparing more innovative sectors (tech and consumer goods) with a less innovative industry (finance), the author examines differences in the way brands approach and communicate about diversity in online settings. The results of the study lead to the development of a theoretical framework with practical applications for business communication academics and professionals alike.

Gender equality is a moral and a business imperative. But unconscious bias holds us back and de-biasing minds has proven to be difficult and expensive. Behavioral design offers a new solution. Iris Bohnet shows that by de-biasing organizations instead of individuals, we can make smart changes that have big impacts—often at low cost and high speed.

Managing for diversity is a management strategy that intends to make productive use of (ethnic and other) differences between individuals. It is based on the premise that "at least if they are well managed" diverse teams will produce better results and diverse companies will gain market advantage. In contrast to other employment equity policies, diversity management is primarily driven by the "business case", i.e. by the argument that diversity and/or its management will increase organizational efficiency and profitability. With diversity management as a business practice becoming more and more popular in Europe, the question of whether this policy actually delivers the business benefits its advocates promise, becomes increasingly relevant to anyone involved in the discussion and implementation of employment policies relating to ethnic and other minorities. An examination of the literature, however, shows that there is no unanimous answer regarding the business benefits of diversity and its management. While for many advocates of diversity management the business case seems to be rather self-evident, academic research on the effects of diversity provides mixed and inconclusive results and has led critics to see a "mismatch between research results and diversity rhetoric" (Kochan et al 2003: 5).

This edited collection provides a structured and in-depth analysis of the current use of quota strategies for resolving the pressing issue of gender inequality, and the lack of female representation on corporate boards. Filling the gap in existing literature on this topic, the two volumes of Gender Diversity in the Boardroom offers systematic overviews of current debates surrounding the optimisation of gender diversity, and the suggested pathways for progress. Focusing on sixteen European countries, the skilled contributors explore the current situation in relation to women on boards debates and approaches taken. They include detailed reflections from critical stakeholders, such as politicians, practitioners and policy-makers. Volume 1 focuses on eight European countries having adopted quotas and is a promising and highly valuable resource for academics, practitioners, policy makers and anyone interested in gender diversity because it examines and critiques the current corporate governance system and national strategies for increasing the share of women not only on boards, but within companies beyond the boardroom.
