DESCRIPTION:The Moral Credentials of Organizational Diversity\n\nSunny Kim
 \n	Northwestern University\n\nDate: March 25\, 2014Time: 1:30 pm - 3:00 pmL
 ocation: Room 245\n\nAbstract: \n\nWhat are the consequences of organizati
 onal diversity? Although we often push for more diversity\, research has n
 ot often tracked its ultimate consequences. In this talk\, I will present 
 evidence that the level of racial diversity within an organization provide
 s moral credentials for that organization. In my first studies\, I find th
 at there is a unique link between organizational diversity and moral crede
 ntials: racially diverse organizations are perceived to be more ethical th
 an organizations with more homogeneity in their racial composition. My nex
 t studies show that when an organization is accused of being unethical\, p
 eople become more attuned to its diversity\, compared to when people are a
 ware of a non-ethics related problem. One reason for why organizational di
 versity provides moral credentials is that diverse organizations are seen 
 as less affected by conformity pressures than homogeneous organizations. M
 y last study shows that racial diversity serves as a type of armor for org
 anizations\, protecting them from accusations of unethicality\; as a resul
 t\, racially diverse organizations receive a smaller penalty for their une
 thical actions than a racially homogeneous organization. Racially diverse 
 organizations are punished less because they are seen as valuing ethics mo
 re. Collectively\, these results suggest that organizational diversity pro
 vides organizations with moral credentials. Understanding the link between
  organizational diversity and perceptions of morality provides insight int
 o the central role that diversity now plays for organizations. More broadl
 y\, the findings also extend our understanding of how our moral values shi
 ft to be in tune with contemporary issues. \n\nFor more information\, plea
