Work-Life Research in the Asia-Pacific
Implications for Justice, Equity, Diversity, and Inclusion
Inbunden, Engelska, 2024
1 958 kr
Skickas inom 5-8 vardagar
This book addresses the most pressing and current work-life issues that are impacting Equity, Diversity, and Inclusion (EDI) in organisations across the Asia-Pacific. It is organised around three major themes: (1) Work-life equality and justice; (2) Technology, work, and family; and (3) Work-life values and trends in Asia, all of which will be discussed in relation to EDI. Issues concerning the work-life interface are closely intertwined with issues relating to EDI—for example, labour market inequalities are often fuelled by the interplay of gender, race, and family circumstances. Yet, comparatively lesser attention has been given to the non-work aspects (particularly, the family context) in research on the work-life interface and contemporary EDI issues. Breaking away from a predominantly Western perspective, this volume offers fresh insights and empirical evidence, shedding light on the most urgent and critical work-life challenges faced by people in the Asia-Pacific It also provides deep understanding of the broader social, economic, and political environments shaping work-life trends. It will appeal to researchers and practitioners interested in topics related to human functioning and flourishing at work, at home, and in society.

A criminal record can be a formidable employment barrier and is thus a major contributor to employment inequality, as most employers would rather avoid hiring an individual who has committed a crime. This book, offering an employer-centric view of the latest research findings, blends interdisciplinary theoretical perspectives and empirical findings to provide an overview and areas for future management research. The chapters assess the state of the field while highlighting the most critical themes that advance our understanding of the employment process and challenges for system-impacted individuals. Presenting a comprehensive assessment of the challenges and opportunities, this volume will appeal to disciplines related to organizational behavior, human resource management, and employment law, as well as any other disciplines that bear responsibility for enacting and crafting hiring and selection processes.

Neurodiversity and Work
Employment, Identity, and Support Networks for Neurominorities
Inbunden, Engelska, 2024

Skickas inom 5-8 vardagar
This interdisciplinary work explores creating more inclusive workplaces around neurodiversity. It focuses on how organizations can promote true inclusion for neurominorities, a large segment of the emerging workforce while underlining the difficulties as well as the strength-based characteristics faced by this population.Beyond social, learning or communication challenges, neurominorities are often highly intelligent, honest, authentic, hyper-focused, innovative, skilled in various forms of perception, reliable, and resilient. Discovering ways for true inclusion can add value to organizations, helping all employees to learn and develop as colleagues while also helping neurominorities fulfill the goals of achieving dignity, respect, independence, and flourishing through work. This volume connects neurodiversity to disability in the workplace and examines the factors that contribute to the successful employment and integration of neurodiverse workers, including the transition from school to the labor market. It also highlights barriers and challenges faced by neurominorities. This book will appeal to scholars across business and the social sciences looking to better understand how neurodiversity should be addressed in organizational contexts. The multidisciplinary approach will accelerate management research and practices by providing insights already captured across a wide variety of disciplines, rather than prompting management researchers to build upon what currently exists solely in the management literature

This book provides a comprehensive analysis of the issues surrounding allyship as one of the tools in the arsenal of organisational leaders to further advance the goal of diversity, equity and inclusion (DEI) in organisations. It extends the existing literature on allyship, which has predominantly focused on allyship in the context of gender and racial inclusion. It specifically addresses allyship concerns within organizations that are striving for DEI. The chapters explore various models of allyship, delving into the antecedents, moderators, mediators, and organizational outcomes associated with effective allyship in the pursuit of DEI goals.This text critically examines the concept of allyship in the context of discrimination faced by various groups, including but not limited to under-researched populations such as persons with disabilities and individuals from the lesbian, gay, bisexual, and queer (LGBQ) community. By extending the understanding of human resource practitioners and academic theorists in these underexplored but crucial areas, it sheds light on the role of organisational allies in addressing discrimination and supporting marginalized groups. Additionally, it delves into the involvement of organisational allies in adjudicated discrimination cases, further enriching the discourse on allyship and its practical applications.Providing a comprehensive review of the salient issues surrounding allyship within organisations and the extent to which this can be an efficacious approach in promoting and developing more inclusive and diverse contemporary organisations, this work will prove useful to researchers in facilitating the delivery of contemporary data, literature and analysis as it relates to the current challenges faced by disadvantaged employees and job seekers and how lenses through which they are perceived, may be prejudicial.

This edited work assembles knowledge on wide-ranging indigenous supply chain management (SCM) theories and practices from different African countries, particularly sub-Saharan Africa. The chapters concentrate on how African culture influences supply chain practices' nature, operations, structures, outcomes, and value propositions. This is essential knowledge to facilitate a better understanding of what SCM might mean in the African context while also serving as an avenue to evaluate similarities and differences between cross-country management theories.Africans have historically employed indigenous SCM to address the socioeconomic challenges they face in the coordination of the movement of goods, services, and all processes that transform raw materials into finished goods. By identifying and examining the differences, similarities, and complementarities between various African indigenous SCM concepts and ideologies, this work will inform the development of new models and interventions in response to Africa's complex business management challenges. It will forge new ground for researchers and policymakers regarding effective, efficient, and sustainable solutions to manage global supply chain challenges.

This book sheds light onto the complexities of diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) within Central and Eastern Europe (CEE) , a region rich in history and cultural variety, yet underrepresented in DEI studies. Focusing on DEI issues from a translocal perspective, it explores the interplay between historical legacies and contemporary challenges, examines DEI in the workplace, and addresses various intersectionalities of gender, sexuality, ethnicity, and ability in the context of CEE region.Engaging with current debates on globalization, migration, nationalism, and the socio-political dynamics of inclusion and exclusion, this work brings regional specificities into broader scholarly and policy discussions. It also challenges the predominantly Western-centric discourse in DEI scholarship.This volume will appeal to researchers in business as well as the social sciences seeking a deeper understanding of DEI within CEE, encouraging a nuanced approach to studying and addressing equity and inclusion in a region with a complex historical and contemporary landscape. It also enriches the global discourse on DEI, serving as a crucial resource for developing context-specific strategies to enhance inclusivity in Central and Eastern Europe.

This book examines the developed leadership perspectives and capacities of 24 women presidents in the northeastern United States from the lenses of organizational behavior and psychology. Building Madsen’s groundbreaking work (2008), it highlights how these women overcame challenges and biases to reach the presidency. Based on this analysis, the authors present the Women’s Integrative Leadership Development (WILD) model, which integrates and contextualizes the trajectories, relationships, personal characteristics, and leadership skills of the interviewees within an ever-evolving societal landscape.Ultimately, this book distills the shared elements of successful women leaders, offering a valuable resource for those interested in management, career development, HRD, HRM, and organizational behavior, particularly as there are few validated models of leadership development tailored specifically for women.
Diversity, Equity, Inclusion, and Indigeneity in Business in South Asia
A Multilevel Framework
Inbunden, Engelska, 2026

Kommande
This volume provides an intercultural perspective on the current state of research and practice related to diversity, equity, inclusion, and indigeneity (DEII) in South Asia. It features contributions from scholars across the South Asian region, focusing on the ways in which DEII initiatives are influenced by a variety of factors, including legislative, political, social, patriarchal, religious, governance, and corporate policies.While much of the existing DEII research has primarily centered on mono-cultural Western-oriented contexts, often referred to as "WEIRD" (Western, Educated, Industrialized, Rich, & Democratic) nations, South Asian countries like Afghanistan, Bangladesh, Bhutan, India, Maldives, Nepal, Pakistan, and Sri Lanka represent multicultural developing economies with diverse educational, democratic, and industrialization levels. This collection seeks to examine the applicability and relevance of current DEII knowledge within this unique South Asian context.The editors of this work adopt a relational, multilevel framework to emphasize that effective diversity management cannot be divorced from the sociocultural and institutional landscape. They explore the innovative DEII policies and practices specific to South Asia, reflecting the region's shared history, values, beliefs, and colonial legacies.The text is structured into four sections: social, political, and historical contexts; management policies and practices; the changing nature of work; and leading and managing through DEII. This segmentation allows for a comprehensive exploration of the nuances inherent to South Asian countries due to their common historical experiences, cultural values, beliefs, and colonial influences.Intending to capture the current landscape of DEII policies, practices, and their impact on fostering or hindering diversity, equity, and inclusion in South Asia, this book will be of interest to scholars specializing in HRM, cross-cultural management, and employment relations, particularly those seeking insights within the South Asian and broader Global South contexts.
