ABSTRACT

In this chapter, I will provide a brief overview of the original work in the diversity management literature to provide a backdrop for the framework we developed in Fink and Pastore (1999). From there, I will discuss the reasons for my initial interest in the topic and the process I utilised in the development of the framework. I will explain how I have used the framework in my own work and highlight a sample of others’ applications and extensions of the framework. I will conclude the chapter with an examination of possible directions for future research.
