We advance the literature on the demographic factors that shape organizational outcomes by analyzing the impact of the gender composition of firm leadership on the likelihood that a firm will adopt lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender (LGBT)-friendly policies. Drawing on social role and token theory, we test the relative impact of CEO gender and the gender composition of the board

Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion: Is It Just Another Catchphrase?
Writing about diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) and not reiterating the same slogans about health care disparities, implicit bias, White privilege, or “Black Lives Matter,” over and over is painfully difficult.

Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion That Matter
My pending exodus from academic medicine after 15 years is prompted by my belief that the institutional and systemic racism so obvious to me would never be fully acknowledged, much less addressed. This belief was formed after several experiences that left me — a Black woman — feeling stifled, unheard, unvalidated, unsupported, and concerned for my health.1 Too often, academic

DIVERSITY, EQUITY, AND INCLUSION POLICIES: ARE ORGANIZATIONS TRULY COMMITTED TO A WORKPLACE CULTURE SHIFT?
This paper proceeds from the premise that true change can only be realized after first coming to terms with harsh realities.

Diversity, equity, and inclusion in engineering education: an exploration of European higher education institutions’ strategic frameworks, resources, and initiatives

Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion in Clinical Research: A Path Toward Precision Health for Everyone
Healthcare disparities are a persistent societal problem. One of the contributing factors to this status quo is the lack of diversity and representativeness of research efforts, which result in nongeneralizable evidence that, in turn, provides suboptimal means to enable the best possible outcomes at the individual level. There are several strategies that research teams can adopt to improve the diversity,

Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion (DEI) in the Journal of Consumer Research: A Curation and Research Agenda
Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion (DEI) has become ubiquitous in public and academic discourse. This is despite ongoing contests over definitions and the lack of a clear consensus about the relative importance (and even the appropriate order) of each component. For our purposes, diversity refers broadly to real or perceived physical or socio-cultural differences attributed to people and the representation of
