Technology’s use has exploded, and many employees have been left behind during the COVID-19 pandemic. Organizations are constantly trying to balance people and technology within the workplace. In today’s highly technological, globalized economy, it is essential that practitioners and researchers understand that people and technology do not exist in isolation from each other within the workplace.

The three main areas that are included to explain how philosophy, ethics, and systems theory relate to the five values are the three philosophical perspectives, diversity intelligence, and the workforce inter-personnel diversity talent management system. Covering topics such as ethics, organizational philosophical perspectives, and value creation model, this premier reference source is an essential resource for business leaders, human resource managers, entrepreneurs, technology professionals, students and educators of higher education, researchers, and academicians.
