This symposium aims to delve into the underlying mechanisms of these unintended outcomes and highlight effective solutions. By inviting leading scholars in this domain to share ongoing research, this platform seeks to dissect the complexities of DEI implementation, paving the way for more nuanced strategies. It also aims to identify proactive measures to minimize negative impacts and amplify positive outcomes. With a forward-looking approach, this symposium endeavors to shape the future trajectory of DEI research and practice, offering valuable insights for fostering inclusive and equitable organizational environments.
