| Summary |
Although much research has focused on the implications of changing workforce demographics for organizations and on characteristics of organizational settings, relatively few studies have been conducted on diversity within work teams. The seven research papers in this book, selected from a conference sponsored by the American Psychological Association, the Center for Creative Leadership, and New York University, expand the current state of knowledge on diverse teams and provide implications for further research and practice |
