Use a thesaurus to expand your search. Think of other keywords that mean the same--for example, you could use specific groups of people --African Americans, Latinos, Hispanics, Native Americans, women, LGBT, persons with disabilities, etc.
Once you have your keywords, make a search statement. For example-- (African Americans OR Hispanics) AND (workplace OR companies).. Another example: relationships AND "employee productivity"
