Abstract
There has been increasing awareness
on the benefits of a diversified
workforce and diversity and inclusion
are being recognized as strategic
components of business.This
paper critically examines the diversity
management practices being
followed by three leading IT organizations
of India as they all are
Indian multinationals having their
operations in different parts of the
world. Analysis of the diversity
management practices in these organizations
revealed that global
operation, dynamic business environment,
dependence on knowledge
and talent shortage are some of the
key reasons behind focusing on diversity.
Gender diversity and diversity
of nationality have received
greater attention than other issues
like diversity of the differently
abled, underprivileged, race,
ethnicity and age-group.
