Diversity, Equity and Inclusion and Operations Management: Critical Linkages and Research Opportunities.
Production and Operations Management,
Abstract
How we manage operations – the domain of Operations Management (OM) – has important implications for the practice of diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) in organizations. Conversely, DEI goals have important implications for organizations’ OM practices. We outline the two-way links between DEI and OM to offer future research opportunities. In particular, we examine interactions between OM and DEI across four broad themes: (1) workforce, (2) supply chains, (3) health and society, and (4) technology, platforms, and innovation. We conclude with a discussion of DEI in OM as it relates to research and teaching. This article is a collaborative effort with the Senior Editors involved in the special issue of Production and Operations Management on “DEI in Operations and Supply Chain Management.”
