Diversity Diversity is generally defined as acknowledging, understanding, accepting, valuing, and celebrating differences among people with respect to age, class, ethnicity, gender, physical and mental ability, race, sexual orientation, spiritual practice, and public assistance status (Esty, et al., 1995 ).

    4. Select a card mentally……. Don’t jus look at it, concentrate on it And memorize it
    5. Your card isn’t there………… Is it a magic??? Did I really read your mind????
    6. Well, things are not always as they appear………… We need to look at the actual picture behind the visible one…. Want to see how ???
      • These were the original cards…
      • None of the cards were dealt on the second hand…..
      • Did u consider the real and the bigger picture while selecting the card??
      • This happens because most of the times we think of our own objectives and miss out the big picture.

      • This long-time diversity leader ensures it remains competitive by continually assessing and improving its advantages, especially in the areas of communications and supplier diversity .
    43. Diversity Strengths: Verizon's commitment to diversity starts with Chairman and CEO Ivan Seidenberg, who gets a near-perfect score on our CEO Commitment criteria. He meets regularly with the company's 10 employee-resource groups , which are critical to Verizon's success. Employee groups have existed at this company for more than 10 years and are funded by Verizon, with meetings during the workday and the support in each group of a designated senior executive. Seidenberg also personally reviews Verizon's diversity scorecard -- 17 key diversity metrics -- on a quarterly basis. The company's commitment to its employees is evidenced by its pipeline of talent. Thirty-nine percent of its managers are Black, Asian, Latino or Native American. Its managers are retained at almost equal rates across race/ethnicity and gender. Verizon is focused on casting a wide net when recruiting. Once at Verizon, employees receive robust professional and career development resources from formal mentoring opportunities to leadership development training. In 2007, Verizon invested more than $370 million in tuition assistance and developmental training for its employees.
    44. Employee Resource Groups (ERGs) Our Employee Resource Groups Our Employee Resource Groups (ERGs) are Verizon-supported and employee-run and organized affinity groups that promote personal and professional growth for employees with common interests. Through networking, mentoring, special initiatives, seminars and conferences, ERGs promote personal and professional growth of employees, enhance career advancement and provide a stronger sense of community within the company.
    45. ERGs Projects include:
      • Helping the company with marketing, advertising, branding, sales, strategic planning, recruitment, sourcing, employee development, external partnerships and diversity awareness.
      • Going into the community and working for humanitarian causes such as Habitat for Humanity, Big Brothers and Big Sisters and AIDS research.
      • Hosting events that give members and employees the opportunity to network and develop skills, in such areas as career development or business education, investment strategies, resume writing or even stress management.
      • Celebrating cultural, educational and other special events during their groups' history or heritage month.
