Minorities in Administration: A Review of Ethnicity's Influence in Management
Abstract
Theories about organizations & their management are described
& placed along a continuum. A niche for the study of the influence
of ethnicity in management is prescribed along this continuum.
Literature is reviewed to identify distinct factors that confront
minority administrators & that significantly impact management
effectiveness & efficiency. Linkages between management behavior
& organizational processes, & the ethnicity of administrators
are exposed. Specific ethnic barriers relative to entry into
management, fit in the informal organization, performance evaluations
& promotions, & special role expectations are discussed.
Management education that is cross-culturally sensitive is
recommended.
