Abstract
Purpose
The purpose of this chapter is to provide an overview of the research presented in this edited volume.
Design/Methodology
This report is based on 13 chapters, which vary in terms of research approach, design, and method, yet aims to present different types of diversity in organizations.
Findings
The chapters shed light on existing practices promulgating the value of diversity, while opening the road toward diverse definitions of diversity. Contributors provide a critical reflection of the current discourse on different types of diversity around the world. Findings indicate that multinational organizations are regularly confronted with the absence of the necessary sensitivity on behalf of their top management team and spokespeople. Empirical studies advocate strategies that could potentially facilitate both organizations and immigrants to overcome a plethora of challenges.
Originality
The report summarizes and integrates novel insights on how organizations approach, view, and manage different types of diversity.
