Abstract: This article addresses the limited integration of disability-related topics into management research, with a focus on inclusive career development. While diversity and inclusion are frequently emphasized in strategic organizational goals, disability remains an underexplored dimension. The aim of this study is to identify research trends, conceptual gaps, and emerging directions in academic literature on disability in the context of management and career studies. Using bibliometric analysis of 1325 articles from the “Web of Science” database, this research distinguishes dominant themes, author networks, and temporal shifts in focus. The findings reveal that most studies approach disability from a health or policy angle, with weak integration into strategic human resource or talent management discourse. The study highlights the need for a paradigmatic shift from a deficit-oriented to an empowerment-based approach and proposes directions for future inquiry in inclusive talent and career management.
