Organizations can become more diverse either as a result of demographic developments and global mobility or through actively striving to be more diverse in an effort to increase their innovative potential, access new markets, or attract the most qualified employees. Diversity can have a range of positive as well as negative effects on organizations and their employees. Unfortunately, until now the effects of diversity have been difficult to predict, and it is not yet sufficiently understood under what conditions a particular type of diversity will have a positive or negative effect (van Knippenberg and Schippers 2007). |
