Most HR leadership philosophies are grounded in two completely faulty assumptions — “change is hard” and “engagement drives results.” Those beliefs have inspired expensive attempts to keep change from being disruptive to employees.

A recent study from the University of Houston argues that homogenous hiring committees are a key barrier to progress. This flies in the face of frequent statements from organizations that their lack of diversity is more due to the homogeneity of applicants rather than any faults on their part.
