In response to the social reality of an increasingly diverse workplace, one critical challenge facing most contemporary organizations is to navigate the tension between diversity and unity. While most studies pursue only one aspect at a time, focusing on either diversity or unity, this project moves beyond a single-edged approach to study the diversity-unity paradox in a systematic, integrative manner. By introducing the concept of “unified diversity” to capture an organization’s capacity to elicit diverse viewpoints and perspectives while simultaneously sustaining its oneness, this project aims to clarify the construct space of unified diversity, develop an integrative research model, and identify possible management practices for enhancing unified diversity. By doing so, this project sheds light on how to harmonize diversity and unity in organizations. The outcomes of this research hold significant promise for guiding individuals, organizations, and broader societal entities in harnessing unified diversity to enhance learning and performance.The primary goal of this project is to investigate how organizations can leverage “unified diversity” to enhance learning and performance through human resource management. The project is structured in three key phases. The first phase involves conducting qualitative interviews and surveys to establish a clear conceptualization of unified diversity. In the second phase, the project employs computational modeling and quantitative surveys to examine the antecedents and outcomes of unified diversity, seeking to clarify organizational dynamics that lead to and result from unified diversity. The third phase integrates qualitative interviews, computational modeling, and quantitative survey studies to pinpoint effective management practices and organizational designs that promote unified diversity. By adopting a mixed-methods approach, this project enriches current knowledge about the nature of the diversity-unity paradox and the micro-foundations of unified diversity, which is essential for advancing organizational learning and maintaining a competitive edge in the contemporary business landscape.This award reflects NSF's statutory mission and has been deemed worthy of support through evaluation using the Foundation's intellectual merit and broader impacts review criteria.

为了应对日益多元化的工作场所的社会现实，大多数当代组织面临的一个关键挑战是驾驭多样性与统一性之间的紧张关系，尽管大多数研究一次只追求一个方面，要么关注多样性，要么关注统一性，但该项目发生了变化。超越单向方法，以系统、综合的方式研究多样性与统一悖论。通过引入“统一多样性”的概念来捕捉组织在保持同一性的同时引发不同观点和观点的能力。明确统一的建构空间多样性，开发综合研究模型，并确定增强统一多样性的可能管理实践，通过这样做，该项目揭示了如何协调组织中的多样性和统一性。以及更广泛的社会实体利用统一多样性来提高学习和绩效。该项目的主要目标是研究组织如何利用“统一多样性”通过人力资源管理来提高学习和绩效。该项目分为三个关键阶段。第一阶段包括进行定性访谈和调查在第二阶段，该项目采用计算模型和调查来研究统一多样性的前因和结果，试图阐明导致统一多样性和由此产生的组织动力。第三阶段整合了定性访谈。 、计算建模和定量调查研究，以查明促进统一多样性的有效管理实践和组织设计。通过采用混合方法，该项目丰富了当前关于多样性-统一悖论的本质和统一的微观基础的知识。多样性，这是必不可少的旨在促进组织学习并在当代商业环境中保持竞争优势。该奖项反映了 NSF 的法定使命，并通过使用基金会的智力价值和更广泛的影响审查标准进行评估，被认为值得支持。
