All of your links are either paywalled studies, or lead to 404 pages, except for the first one.
> The effect of shared ethnicity was even stronger, reducing an investment’s comparative success rate by 26.4% to 32.2%.
Right, so any diversity of ethnicity - including Asians - was associated with this "diversity boost".
> They find student performance most-improved when there was greater management diversity,
And again, what was the criteria used to measure diversity? Did it count Asians as diverse? You keep citing excerpts from these studies, but don't include anything relevant to my comment: are Asians considered diverse or not?
> Most of the sixteen reviews matching inclusion criteria demonstrated positive associations between diversity, quality and financial performance. Healthcare studies showed patients generally fare better when care was provided by more diverse teams.
And for the third time are Asians considered diverse? That's the crux of the question that you continuously fail to answer.
> Using data from the 1996 to 1997 National Organizations Survey, a national sample of for-profit business organizations, this article tests eight hypotheses derived from the value-in-diversity thesis. The results support seven of these hypotheses: racial diversity is associated with increased sales revenue, more customers, greater market share, and greater relative profits.
And again, were Asians included in the definition of "racial diversity"?

- Manuel_D 4y ago> Find it! You keep posing these questions, but refuse to do the work of arriving at the solution yourself, which you are entirely capable of doing. Go answer your own questions! I can't find it because most of your links are either broken or paywalled. Go post the excerpts that say "we define racial diversity as...". Here's an example of mismatch between one of your working links and our diversity policies: > To draw an example from this study, if all of the teachers in a given district were white, the Blau index would be 0, indicating perfect homogeneity. If 25 percent of the teachers were white, 25 percent were black, 25 percent were Latino/a, and 25 percent were Asian or Native American (grouped as “other” for my purposes here), then the Blau index would be 0.75, indicating the highest level of heterogeneity achievable in a situation with four categories. As the number of categories increases, the highest possible Blau score increases. By comparison, my company's diversity policies target equity. So Asian representation of 25% is not considered diverse, as they are only 6% of the population and thus 25% is nearly a 5x overrepresentation. > Why are you discriminating against Asians this blatantly and obviously? It's wild, how you think this is okay. I'm not! DEI policies are. But the research showing the benefits of diversity overwhelmingly do count Asians as diverse, hence the mismatch between the research and our DEI policies.

- Manuel_D 4y agoYour link to McKinsey still fails. As does the one to UC Denver. And other than your 2nd link, the papers are paywalled. > And your company misimplementing DEI is not a reflection of DEI itself, just a reflection of how difficult it is to get these kinds of things right. Exactly the point I was making all along. The criteria for "diversity" used in research does not match what's almost always used in company DEI discrimination.
