Demographic diversity and outcomes: A multilevel study

(2021) Demographic diversity and outcomes: A multilevel study. PhD by Publication, Queensland University of Technology.

Description

This thesis is a step forward in understanding the effects of demographic diversity (age, gender and ethnicity) through proposing an integrated multilevel framework at individual and group levels of analysis. The framework was tested using a time-lagged research design in the banking sector of Pakistan. The findings suggest managers to understand the nesting phenomenon within work groups, demonstrate efforts to establish positive communication, and enhance social integration among workgroup members. Moreover, diversity training efforts need to focus on perceptions of gender diversity and age diversity to capitalise on their benefits.
