Thomas explores psychological, social, and organizational factors that contribute to resistance, including identity threat, stereotypes, organizational culture, and power dynamics. The book integrates theory and research from industrial-organizational psychology and social psychology to explain barriers to effective diversity management and provides frameworks for understanding and addressing resistance in workplace settings.
