Discussion
• Discuss factors of diversity including various types of diversity likely to be encountered in the organization.
• Identify actual ethical perspectives/approaches within the organization. (Note: Do not identify that something is simply ethical or unethical.)
• Explain how factors such as offshoring and outsourcing may lead to employee fears and uncertainty.
• Discuss how all the previous three items (i.e., diversity, ethics, and offshoring/outsourcing) may lead to conflict individually and in teams. Include the specific types of conflict that may be present. How might even individual conflict affect a team's performance? Is there a systemic component to this consideration, and if so, how?
• Recommend a manner to minimize, or perhaps alleviate, such fears and uncertainty.
