Unit 8 Discussion Topic: Diverse Control
Managing diversity and cultivating a workplace that reflects the demography of the wider population in terms of age, race, gender, and ethnicity can be difficult; yet organizations that do not develop a diverse workforce are not drawing on the full range of skill sets offered by the entire working population.
After reviewing Chapter 9, consider an organization you are involved with, and respond to the following:
Explain how this organization manages diversity.
Using at least three concepts from Chapter 9, discuss if the organization is effective in its efforts to manage diversity.
Thinking about how societal forces can influence organizational communication and even opportunities within organizations, discuss which concept from Chapter 9 is most prevalent to you and why.
