More subtle forms of racism are being explored in addition to examining experiences of sexual orientation minorities.Originality/value– The diversity and inclusion presentations at the 2009 SIOP conference continue to evolve diversity theory and inform evidence‐based organizational practice. This report summarizes a variety of findings during this conference.
