In this article, we present the concept of stereotype threat, widely used today in the organization studies and management literature. We suggest that examining this concept also invites us to consider the challenges of driving towards greater diversity, especially from the point of view of those who benefit from it. As management professionals, our work for the future will be intricately tied to accompanying the development of ethical diversity and inclusion policies with measures to reduce the threat of stereotyping. The numerous interventions and experiments presented in the stereotype threat literature provide interesting leads in this regard. The development of workplace diversity policies offers many benefits for companies to promote more diverse and inclusive organizational environments. It is important to address these issues more directly, since organizations are rapidly demonstrating they are not one unique color, ethnic group, religion, age or gender.
