Abstract
Stereotype threat that is an important aspect of diversity management still exists in broader workplace. Many experimental
results show that if members of a stereotyped group are brought into an achievement situation where the stereotype can be applied,
they often dramatically underperform when they believe their ability in that particular domain is measured. Therefore, eliminating
negative stereotypes at work where all employees can perform their true potential, received so much research of different experts.
The writers try to suggest some recommendations on how to reduce stereotype threat in working environment so that diversity of
human capital really becomes effective competitive weapon.
