Abstract

This dissertation thesis about diversity management consists of three articles. The first article defines the terms diversity and diversity management and introduces four diversity dimensions: age, disability, gender and nationality/culture. The second article shows from a universal point of view the implementation and institutionalization of diversity management. The third article focuses on one specific diversity dimension which is nationality/culture and analyzes executives’ recruiting decisions of hiring culturally diverse applicants. For the first and third article, data was collected in a large automotive company. The second article is a benchmark study of 22 large companies in Germany. Overall, 54 qualitative interviews were conducted and analyzed with qualitative content analysis.
