Abstract
By examining supplier diversity programs and comparing their components with the role of the diversity practitioners, we highlight the important role that diversity practitioners can have in supplier diversity programs. In reviewing the U.S. auto industry and its successful supplier diversity model, our findings suggest that diversity practitioners have a real opportunity to expand their existing roles as strategist, educator, and researcher. We explore the aforementioned and offer conclusions and implications for HRD practice.
