What are "Organizational Disparities?"

Organizational disparities are the noticeable and usually significant differences in level or treatment that emerge in organizations, which can result in disparate access to opportunities, resources, engagement, and recognition. Unaddressed, these dissimilarities can lead to suboptimal outcomes for organizations, individuals, and society.
