The working age population is decreasing rapidly in Japan. Therefore Japanese companies have to develop themselves into companies which harmonize with not only male workers but also diverse workers such as female and older workers. In other words, the importance of diversity management further increases. There are a few researches which analyze Japanese companies in diversity management field. In fact, Taniguchi (2005) and Henmi (2018) address Japanese diversity management. Both suggest that diversity causes organizational transformations in Japanese companies. Therefore this paper specifies theoretical differences between Taniguchi (2005) and Henmi (2018) and issues to develop Japanese diversity management.
