Research Handbook on Global Diversity Management, pp.1-10, 2025 (Scopus)
Global Diversity Management (GDM) is a strategic function emphasising integrating diverse human and non-human elements within organisations. By recognising diversity as a fundamental resource, GDM aims to eradicate inequality and foster inclusion, surpassing mere compliance with anti-discrimination laws. This approach encourages the harnessing of diverse talents to drive innovation and enhance global reputation. GDM represents a shift towards a more inclusive organisational model, integrating diversity into corporate identity and strategy. It balances global coherence with local nuances, ensuring diversity policies resonate with indigenous cultural frameworks. This paradigm shift also addresses the complexities of human interactions with both nature and technology, advocating for a new deal that harmonises human diversity, biodiversity, and technodiversity. Embracing diverse perspectives within GDM empowers organisations to respond dynamically, fostering resilience and innovation.
