This edited book examines the management of diversity and inclusion
in the military. Owing to the rise of asymmetric warfare, a shift
in demographics and labor shortfalls, the US Department of Defense
(DoD) has prioritized diversity and inclusion in its workforce
management philosophy. In pursuing this objective, it must ensure
the attractiveness of a military career by providing an inclusive
environment for all personnel (active and reserve military,
civilian, and contractors) to reach their potential and maximize
their contributions to the organization. Research and practice
alike provide substantial evidence of the benefits associated with
diversity and inclusion in the workplace. Diversity and inclusion
programs are more strategic in focus than equal opportunity
programs and strive to capitalize on the strengths of the
workforce, while minimizing the weaknesses that inhibit optimal
organizational performance. This new book provides vital
clarification on these distinct concepts, in addition to offering
concrete best practices for the successful management of diversity
and inclusion in the workplace. Written by scholars and
practitioners, each chapter addresses major areas, raises crucial
issues, and comments on future trends concerning diversity and
inclusion in the workplace. The book will be of great interest to
students of military studies, war and conflict studies, business
management/HRM, psychology and politics in general, as well as to
military professionals and leaders.
