Organizational DEI practices and positive outcomes

Abstract

Purpose This paper aims to review the latest management developments across the globe and pinpoint practical implications from cutting-edge research and case studies. Design/methodology/approach This briefing is prepared by an independent writer who adds their own impartial comments and places the articles in context. Findings Organizations need to ascertain whether their diversity, equity and inclusion (DEI) practices are having the intended positive impact on potentially disadvantaged employee groups. A key part of this process is deeper understanding of both objective and subjective (dis)advantage, which will subsequently enable the firm to implement a smaller number of DEI initiatives that are more accurately targeted to specific groups. Originality/value The briefing saves busy executives and researchers hours of reading time by selecting only the very best, most pertinent information and presenting it in a condensed and easy-to-digest format.
