Module 2 discussion
Diversity and
Inclusion
In this discussion, respond to the following questions:
Select one of the companies listed on the Diversity Inc.
list (See Module 2 Background, The 2017 Diversity Inc. Top 50 Companies for
Diversity. Retrieved from
http://www.diversityinc.com/the-diversityinc-top-50-companies-for-diversity-2017/). Refer to that company by name. Research its
diversity and inclusion initiatives.
Compare and contrast the company’s diversity and inclusion
efforts with those of your own organization or another one with which you are familiar. Discuss what one or both of these companies
say formally about the importance of inclusion of diverse groups. Do you think they walk their talk? Why?
Examine the EEO
and/or affirmative action efforts of your own company or another one with which
you are familiar. What does this company
say formally about those efforts? Are
those efforts the same or different than its diversity and inclusion efforts? Why?
