As the business world becomes increasingly global, so increases the
need to understand differences and similarities in work behaviour.
This volume offers frameworks for analysis which will be needed to
understand the dynamics of organizational behaviour in the
international arena.
The Leader-Member Exchange (LMX) model of leadership has shown that
effective leader-follower relationships predict employee well-being
and performance. Less research, however, addressed how diversity
variables may affect the development of leader-member exchange and
outcomes. This book moves the field forward by addressing the 21st
century challenges of how diversity may impact the development of
effective working relationships. Key trends in the workforce
suggest that the impact of diverse employees will challenge a
leader's ability to develop effective working relationships with
all direct reports. New frameworks are needed to understand how
various groups such as women, Hispanics, African Americans,
Millennials, LGBTQ, and persons with Autism Spectrum Disorder
develop effective working relationships with their supervisors.
This edited volume will bring together the top scholars in the
field to address these segments of the workforce and offer
practical advice for managers. This book will be used in college
undergraduate and/or graduate level leadership classes. It might
also be adopted for courses in managing diversity. Scholars will
find the book a useful reference work. In addition, practicing
managers will be interested in the implications of developing
effective working relationships in diverse leader-member dyads.
