Abstract
Academic organizations are institutions where people with different backgrounds come together. However, the perceptions of academics working in academic organizations on diversity management are unknown. This, aim to determine the perceptions of academic nursing faculty members regarding diversity management. A total of 351 volunteer academic nursing faculty members participated in the study. The study data were collected using an online survey. It was determined that the perception of the diversity management of academic nursing faculty members is at a moderate level. In addition, academic nursing faculty members born in 1980 or earlier, female, single, holding the title of professor, having administrative duties, having 21 years and more of both professional and institutional experience, and evaluating the management style of their institution as "participatory" had higher sub-dimension scores, and there were statistically significant differences between groups in terms of title, administrative duties, institutional experience, and management style of the institution (p < 0.05). To increase the perception of diversity management of academic nursing faculty members, it can be recommended to raise awareness of academic unit managers and to adopt diversity management approaches.
