Managementincluding

Managementincluding is a neologism used in some discussions of management that emphasizes the inclusion of diverse elements within the management process. It is not a formal discipline name, but a way of signaling that management practices should integrate multiple dimensions such as people, processes, and values.

In general terms, management includes planning, organizing, leading, and controlling. When using the term managementincluding, practitioners often stress that these activities should be conducted in a way that incorporates inclusion, equity, accessibility, and stakeholder participation across the organization.

Key components often highlighted under managementincluding include: setting strategic goals; coordinating resources; developing talent; fostering collaboration across functions; and implementing governance and accountability mechanisms, all while applying inclusive leadership and equitable decision-making.

The concept draws on classical management theory, with roots in Henri Fayol’s functions, and on contemporary approaches that foreground human capital, ethics, sustainability, and social responsibility. It aligns with movements toward responsible management and diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) in workplaces.

Practically, managementincluding can guide policies and practices such as diverse hiring, accessible work environments, transparent communication, and participatory decision processes. Challenges include measuring inclusivity outcomes, avoiding tokenism, and balancing efficiency with broader social goals.

Because the term is not standardized, its use can vary. Readers should look for context to determine whether managementincluding refers to inclusive management, cross-functional integration, or a broader approach to governance and operations.
