3. NEEDS ANALYSIS
Needs Analysis
Employees are exposed to a variety of different cultures daily. The employees associate with
customers and coworkers with various personalities, beliefs and sexual orientations where they
may encounter conflict. Diversity training should be offered to assist employees with various
issues they may encounter daily (Arellano, 2009). Diversity training brings the awareness of
work place sensitivity and the differences between cultures, sexuality, bias, and discrimination.
The recommendation and solution is to embrace globalization as it continues to grow, and
implement an effective online diversity training program within the company. It is important for
companies to employee individuals from different cultures and Implement a positive aspect to
their overall image in the business world. The cost of bringing in an online diversity awareness
training program will be repaid as the company's good reputation grows in recognition from their
employees and consumers (Bell & Kravitz 2008).

diversity with other coworkers,
clients, and resources on how to
diffuse a situation before conflict
begins.
The goal of the online class is to
teach cultural facts, positivity,

work place relationships (Walter

Each session will offer the employees
a chance to fill out a survey and a
question and answer session, online

the employees to openly write about
the role playing scenarios so other
