Show Don’t Tell: Diversity Dishonesty Harms Racial/Ethnic Minorities at Work
Organizations aim to convey that they are diverse and inclusive, in part, to recruit racial minorities. We investigate a previously unexamined downside of this recruitment strategy: diversity dishonesty, that is, belief that an organization is falsely or incorrectly inflating its actual diversity.
