Abstract:When it comes to building a workforce that will contribute to organizational success, managers are often caught in a damned-if-you-don't dilemma. If they select new employees who fit the firm, they are simultaneously praised for reinforcing the firm's core values and condemned for preserving its historical demographics. Conversely, if they select new employees to increase diversity, they are simultaneously praised for broadening the firm's perspective and condemned for eroding its cohesiveness.
