Pathways to Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion: The Role of Organizational Learning in Enhancing Racial Minority Leadership
研究了美国城市中通过政策旅游进行的组织学习如何影响包容性商业发展和劳动力多样性，并分析了四种学习类型对少数族裔商业领导力代表性的不同效果。
Diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) initiatives often struggle to achieve lasting impact. This study explores how organizational learning through policy tourism influences inclusive business development and workforce diversity across U.S. cities. Using an exploratory sequential mixed-methods research design, this study first employs qualitative content analysis to classify DEI learning into four types based on learning depth and focus. It then applies a ridge-augmented synthetic control method to examine their distinct effects on racial minority representation in city business leadership. This study advances understanding of organizational learning theoretically and analytically. It also provides practical insights for promoting inclusive economic growth.
