8 Ways to Embrace Diversity
Get your bearings:
-
Look at your assumptions
-
Look at your stereotypes
-
Pay attention to perceptions you hold that push your
buttons: what topics are usually connected with anger or fear?
- Look for groups that fall below your radar -- that you may not
even think about as a group. Some ideas: organizational
position, function, tall, short, union vs. non-union, part-time,
full-time, education, weight
Get going:
-
Enhance your skills. Learn to listen more effectively
-
Enhance your knowledge. Learn about other cultures
-
Learn empathy. Get to know individuals in other groups
-
Chart your course. There is no denying we are all headed somewhere in our lives -- are you just drifting or are you making
decisive adjustments that lead you to where you want to go?
