So You Want To Do Research on Equity/Equality, Diversity, and Inclusion in International HR?
ABOUT THIS EVENT
This webinar is for you if you’re already pursuing EDI research in international business, or if you want to do so in the future. We’ll share results from the first systematic review of EDI in international business (IB), now conditionally accepted at JIBS (authors Stella Nkomo, Mustafa Ozbilgin, David C. Thomas & Stacey Fitzsimmons).
Multinational enterprises (MNEs) are being pressured to address equality, diversity, and inclusion (EDI); modern IHRM research must therefore also address EDI. Our purpose is to evaluate how well existing IB research on EDI will help MNEs answer future demands for global equality and social justice. Our results are based on both a text analysis of 1622 articles, comparing EDI research within and outside of IB, and a narrative review of 101 articles within IB. Among other conclusions, we call for more morality-based and power-laden analysis in the future, and suggest how to do so. At the intersection of IB and EDI research, we see the opportunity to help MNEs proactively lead societal change in the countries where they operate.
