Biography

Hamid H. Kazeroony has taught in a variety of executive and international programs and is currently a contributing faculty at Walden University, PhD Management Program and is a Professor at Minnesota State Colleges and Universities. He has published widely on issues relating to management education, research methods, and responsible management.

Yvonne du Plessis is a Professor at North West University, South Africa. She specializes in managing organizational behaviour, people and behavioural perspectives in project management, and culture and leadership in multiple cultural settings.

"This is a much needed book to understand technicalities and sensitivities of methodology in diversity and inclusion research. It will be useful for research scholars and practitioners alike in theorising, identifying, collecting, and analysing relevant empirical evidence to develop a nuanced and contextual understanding of diversity."

Jawad Syed, PhD, Academic FCIPD, Professor of Organisational Behaviour and Leadership, Suleman Dawood School of Business, Lahore University of Management Sciences, Pakistan

"It is truly wonderful to see this handbook that is specifically aimed at gender, race, indigeneity, identity, and diversity (GRIID) research as a field of inquiry. Professors Kazeroony and du Plessis have thoughtfully crafted a roadmap to help researchers critically think, plan, and undertake work in this field. The book closes with some personal experiences, thoughtful advice, and future research topics shared by established scholars in the field. This title is a critical resource for doctoral students, faculty, and scholarly practitioners."
