English Abstract

This study aims to explore the factors that drive technological change and its impacts on the diversity management practices of human resources through testing the mediator role for strategic renewal.

The study used the qualitative method by collecting data via questionnaires for a sample that size of 230, which were distributed among top and middle management employees of multi-cultural organizations, (Huawei, LG, Orange, Microsoft, and Ericson).

In addition, the researcher used the Statistical Package for Social Science (SPSS ver.22) for descriptive statistics and AMOS.

The study concluded that there is high agreement on the importance of technological change and strategic renewal among the diversity management practices according to the questionnaire respondents.

The study recommends that organizations have to carry out intercultural training and workshops to increase the awareness of diversity management practices and increase workforce diversity which will enhance the knowledge sharing process between employees thus speeding up the process of implementing and understanding new technologies.

Moreover, they have to change their structures and shift responsibilities, in order to face technological changes and enhance their weakness in performance.
