Embodying disability in diversity management research

The purpose of this paper is to introduce an embodied approach to disability into the field of diversity management research.

The paper critically examines previous diversity management research and it draws on previous disability research in the social sciences to develop an embodied approach to disability for diversity management research.

The paper argues that an embodied approach is required because previous diversity management research on disability ignores important aspects of disability.

The embodied approach to disability proposed in this paper expands the understanding of disability in diversity management research, and it discusses implications for future research and for organizations.

The paper is unique in proposing an embodied approach to disability in diversity management research.
