Abstract: | igher educational institutions (HEIs) around theworld are noted for finding solutions to a myriad
of problems confronting humanity through research
and innovation. In achieving this, HEIs bring together
people of diverse backgrounds, expertise, and experi-
ence worldwide to work together, making diversity in
the workforce of HEIs an important factor. Diversity deals with creating an organizational culture of inclu-
sion, in which differences are valued and accepted. In
African HEI governance, diversity and inclusion are
even more paramount, as people with different charac-
teristics must be managed. These include people with
different ethnic background, as Africans have several
ethnicity and different cultural norms. People may
have religious differences, gender differences, age differences
and differences in terms of diability status
among several others. |
