Abstract

The diversity and inclusion (D&I) report is an important element in the corporate public reporting genre; however, as an emerging genre, it receives little attention from scholars interested in public discourse, so there are few guidelines on what should be included in a D&I report. This study helps to fill this gap in the research by examining 10 D&I reports from information technology and banking industries, exploring the reports’ rhetorical purpose and identifying their typified rhetorical moves. The author concludes by recommending what aspects of the current genre's substance and form should be improved to help meet the needs of stakeholders.

多元化与包容性报告：新企业公共报告类型的崛起

多样性与包容性（D&I）报告是企业公共报告体裁中的一个重要元素；然而，作为一种新兴体裁，它很少受到对公共话语感兴趣的学者的关注，因此关于 D&I 报告应包括哪些内容的指导原则很少。本研究通过考察信息技术和银行业的 10 篇 D&I 报告，探讨了这些报告的修辞目的，并识别了其典型的修辞动作，从而填补了这一研究空白。最后，作者建议应从哪些方面改进当前报告体裁的内容和形式，以帮助满足利益相关者的需求。

期刊介绍： JBTC is a refereed journal that provides a forum for discussion of communication practices, problems, and trends in business, professional, scientific, and governmental fields. As such, JBTC offers opportunities for bridging dichotomies that have traditionally existed in professional communication journals between business and technical communication and between industrial and academic audiences. Because JBTC is designed to disseminate knowledge that can lead to improved communication practices in both academe and industry, the journal favors research that will inform professional communicators in both sectors. However, articles addressing one sector or the other will also be considered.
