Cultural diversity and inclusion in organizations: State of the art and challenges

Abstract

The initial aim of this chapter is to identify and explore the national academic production from 2010 to 2015, disclosing a scenario of empirical studies developed on the topic in Brazil. Then, it addresses the international literature, pointing out systematized practices of diversity and inclusion management in organizations. Finally, it intends to propose a reflection on diversity and inclusion in the Brazilian organizations to support empirical evidence-based strategies that could contribute to its management. This review is expected to contribute to enhance knowledge and debate about diversity and inclusion in organizations, serving as reference to future surveys and input to formulate organizational policies related to the topic.
