摘要：Entrepreneurial activity is widely seen as an important tool for addressing the racial wealth gap. However, the survival of minority-owned businesses depends on their ability to win contracts from buyer firms-which might be impacted by buyers' racial biases. Whether discrimination can exist in sourcing and affect this ability is an unexplored question, perhaps due to an implicit assumption that business-to-business settings are immune from discriminatory biases. In this paper, we use controlle...

摘要：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) Technol...

摘要：Many companies are making efforts to diversify their workforces, motivated by documented operational performance benefits and increased pressure to walk the talk on diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) initiatives. One specific call to action from stakeholders is the public disclosure of intersectional diversity data in EEO-1s, which companies with 100+ employees must report each year to the federal government, but which companies rarely make publicly available. Conducting five online experi...

Improving service delivery in interracial service encounters requires understanding the experiences of minority frontline workers. We begin by explaining the challenges faced by minority frontline workers and then offer an analytical framework that will allow operations management research to better ac...

摘要：An equal employment opportunity (EEO) policy is an essential practice of workplace diversity, equity, and inclusion. Using a novel measure of workplace EEO based on the textual analysis of online job postings, we show a lead-lag pattern of EEO practice between principal customers and their dependent suppliers. The leadlag effect is more pronounced when principal customers enjoy greater bargaining power, consistent with the view that dependent suppliers adjust EEO policies to cater to customer ...

摘要：We describe the state of supplier diversity efforts by large corporations from an international perspective. We examine data for the companies in the 2020 and 2022 Fortune Global 500 and find that corporate definitions of diversity are dynamic and vary across regions. Furthermore, while supplier diversity efforts are not yet widespread, these initiatives are increasingly common, especially in the form of references to diversity in companies' supplier codes of conduct. Companies in North Americ...
