Instructions
As part of the Diversity, Equity, Inclusion, and Belonging (DEIB) Team for your organization, you have been asked to prepare a presentation for your coworkers on the influence of cultural diversity in the workplace.
Too often, in the workplace, we received the canned presentations and often taking an organizational perspective and not looking at things from the employee’s perspective. I encourage you to outline your assignment (as a tool, no need to submit) to help organize your points and guide your research. In weeks 1-3, we have covered a number of areas you may want to include. I encourage you to be creative in your approach, providing that perspective which will hold your audience attention and – at the end – are convinced this is something they need to take to heart. Some of the other points, besides what we addressed in our discussions, you might include:
A meaningful understanding of cultural diversity
Key attributes of the cultural diversity within the workplace that can be easily observed.
Challenges associated managing and understanding a culturally diverse workplace. You might consider sharing how you would manage your own values of the diversity and culture of others within the workplace.
What is Diversity to You?”
Describe how your personal cultural values conflict with the organization’s values?
