Evidence-Based Management (EBMgmt) is a movement to integrate best-available evidence, manager’s judgment and stakeholder values in business decision making. Money is being “left at the table” whenever a manager makes a decision that is not consistent with the best evidence made available by business research. To the extent that Hispanic managers–especially females–may be affected by “tokenism” phenomena such as increased visibility, heightened differentiation, and distortion of their individual characteristics so they fit stereotypes (Kanter, 1977a; 1977b), it is crucial for their careers that their decisions be informed by the best-available evidence. This article synthesizes current developments in EBMgmt within the context of minority status that many Hispanic professionals hold and offers suggestions aimed at making EBMgmt a reality.
