Editorial: Profitable Margins

Abstract

The seeds of this special issue were shown at the 2006 Annual ANZAM Conference, hosted by Central Queensland University at Yeppoon. After one of the Gender and Diversity in Organisations (GDO) stream sessions, the three of us were excited about the quality of the work we were seeing presented. We considered how we could move the work from the confines of a conference stream, to reach a larger audience. With the revamped 'Journal of Management & Organization (ISSN 1833-3672) having just been launched, we thought it timely to plan for a special issue, where we could highlight the relevance of the GDO scholarship to the wider academy. Hence the theme 'Profitable margins: Gender and Diversity informing management and organizational studies'.
