Document Summary
Competitive advantages to valuing a diverse workforce: cost argument. The cost of a poor job in integrating workers will increase bc of the increasing diversity of the workforce: resource- Best reputation organizations will win the competition for best personnel. Also the insight and cultural sensitivity that a diverse group can bring to marketing will help its efforts. Diversity of perspectives should improve the level of creativity: problem solving argument, system flexibility argument. Heterogeneity in decision and problem solving groups could produce better decisions through a wider range of perspectives and a more thorough critical analysis. The system should become less determinant, less standardized = more fluid. This fluidity should create greater flexibility to react to environmental changes (i. e. , faster rxns at less cost!) Retention: employee referral programs, diverse recruiting team. Staffing and infrastructure: mentorship, community service outreach, award programs (diversity achievement awards, newsletters, internal websites on diversity, awareness training on diversity.
