International Journal of Social Economics, 2007, vol. 34, issue 6, 374-387

Abstract: Purpose - The paper aims to show that human resource management professionals need to consider the uniqueness of Native, indigenous, and traditional people. Design/methodology/approach - A number of key issues demanding attention are analyzed in a non‐exhaustive discussion of relevant topics. Findings - The paper finds that organizations may lack the perspectives, insights, and skills they need to effectively respond to the needs and demands of employees/potential employees who are members of Native, indigenous, and traditional cultures. Originality/value - This paper provides a timely discussion of this important topic in ways that have immediate practitioner application as well as suggesting additional research, dialogue, and thought.
