As the workforce becomes more and more diverse, some might find it difficult to remain current on the characteristics of diverse groups of individuals. Indeed, it is not expected of you to have a degree in diversity, but one of the best ways to gain knowledge is by sharing knowledge. Let’s begin by first examining the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission’s website.
The EEOC is a federal entity tasked with enforcing federal laws that govern the discrimination against applicants or employees on the basis of “race, color, religion, sex (including pregnancy, transgender status, and sexual orientation), national origin, age (40 or older), disability or genetic information” (EEOC, n.d., n.p.). They have the power to investigate claims of discrimination against employers that are required to abide by federal standards. This can often differ for private companies that do not fall under the realm of federal control. Visit Equal Employment Opportunity Commission’s website.
Part I: Your Experience
Talk about an experience you have had with a diverse population. If you have not had any experience working with diverse populations, locate a recent news article/video where there was an issue working with a diverse population. (Be sure and keep your experiences anonymous to protect organizations and individuals.)
Consider the following questions:
- What were the positives in the approach your leader used to address the situation?
- Which portion of the EEOC website might be applicable to your situation?
- What were the lessons learned?
Part 2
Reflecting on your DEI experience in the previous discussion, compose an article for the Complex World.
Your article should address the following:
- Give a brief description of the scenario you presented in the M3.3 discussion. (M3.3 is Part 1 above) That is what you would give a brief description about
- How would you handle this situation (which was the topic of your DEI experience discussion) now, based on what you have experienced and learned in this course?
- Make a recommendation based upon best practices and experience for handling such situations in the future. Be sure your recommendations are supported with evidence from valid and reliable sources.
ASSIGNMENT INSTRUCTIONS
For Complex World, here are the formatting requirements:
-
- Your article should be no fewer than 600 words and no more than 800.
- Your article should be submitted using the Complex World submission template. Download submission template.
- You have the ability to move images and headings within the template.
