Abstract

Key Findings:

• Inclusive leaders—characterized by the high-quality relationships they form with their employees—can significantly reduce the high turnover costs seen in diverse work groups.

• While it’s tempting to only develop great relationships with the best employees, a manager who plays favorites in a diverse work group will see more employees leave.
