Results: the uniqueness found in the organizationaldiversity reflects the potentials of each organization of AUM. These potentials were seen as an opportunity to take advantage of the diversity in achieving the objectives, vision and mission of the Muhammadiyah organization. This leads to a perception that organizational diversity is a grace (berkah) and blessing (rahmat) for AUM

Applications/Originality/Value: This research is studying lower level of organizational diversity management in a religious organization, in particular the Muhammadiyah. Further research is needed to explore the dynamics of organizational diversity and its management method to reach excellences.
