Abstract

Zusammenfassung Diversity Management hat sich in der Personalpolitik deutscher Unternehmen als unverzichtbares element etabliert. Die Motive hierfür sind unterschiedlich und reichen von politisch-normativer Notwendigkeit bis zur Erwartung ökonomischer Vorteile. Vor diesem Hintergrund analysiert der Beitrag die Ergebnisse der aktuellen internationalen Forschung zum Zusammenhang zwischen Gender Diversity und Organisationserfolg. Dabei werden unter anderem erfolgskritische Randbedingungen dieses Zusammenhangs betrachtet, darunter auch Ansätze des Managements von Diversity. Es zeigt sich, dass die einschlägige Forschung derzeit keine Schlüsse auf eine generelle ökonomische Vorteilhaftigkeit von Gender Diversity zulässt; auch konnten bisher nur wenige Randbedingungen als erfolgskritisch identifziert werden. Defzite der bisherigen Forschung bestehen vor allem in der unzureichenden theoretischen Fundierung und methodischen Heterogenität der empirischen Untersuchungen; überdies sind Studien im Kontext deutschsprachiger Unternehmen ausgesprochen selten. Der Beitrag diskutiert Implikationen für Forschung und Praxis des Managements von Gender Diversity.
