Discussion: Diversity
a) What happens if an organization develops a reputation for only valuing individual workers from specific backgrounds?
b What are the negative consequences of having diversity without a climate of support? Give examples.
c) Minority or non-dominant groups are not necessarily fewer in number than a majority or dominant groups. Why are groups that are more numerous able to be dominated?
d) People tend to attribute positive characteristics to members of their in-groups, and negative characteristics to members of groups to which they do not belong. In-group favoritism and out-group bias disadvantage non-dominant groups and impede diversity. Why does this happen? Why are non-dominant groups disadvantaged? What can be done to reduce this propensity?
