description This paper aims to examine the definition and theoretical perspectives of neurodiversity, and to identify potential areas of future research in the context of management studies. Neurodiversity, which has received particular attention in recent years, is a concept that has been discussed in interdisciplinary studies, including those in sociology, education, medicine, and psychology, but its definition is vague. Therefore, we first review the literature from these broad areas of research to clarify the relationship between developmental disabilities and the neurodiversity concept. To provide a comprehensive review of interdisciplinary research, we employed a narrative review. We then propose a definition of neurodiversity for management studies and theoretical perspectives for future research. Possible areas for these include a systematic literature review, analysis of the perspectives of inclusion, and examination of other viewpoints in diversity management at the organizational, workplace, and individual levels.
