Culture’s Impact on Diversity: Implicit Bias in Organizations
摘要
The ethical implications of diversity and inclusion as goals of modern organizations are based upon the assumptions that those who lead are both committed to fairness and interested in achieving the benefits of eliminating discriminatory employee treatment. Despite their good intentions, leaders are often unaware of the complex impacts of organizational culture on the implicit biases that affect diversity and inclusion. This chapter identifies six examples of unintended bias that are directly related to organizational culture and offers six propositions about culturally based bias that erode the efforts of modern leaders.
