Let's look at an example to practice: “Business Advantages of Diversity in the Workplace” by Michael
D. Lee, MBA http://www.ethnoconnect.com/articles/9-business-advantages-of-diversity-in-the-work-
place
• I chose this article because you are a diverse group of students who will most likely work in
diverse environments. It is important to have a positive attitude towards this diversity among
your employees and coworkers.
• At 1.5 pages, this is a short article. Therefore, your summary will be short.
• Your summary should be approximately 2 paragraphs. (Each paragraph should have 5-6
sentences.)
• Your summary should include an OVERVIEW of the information, but should not get overly
detailed.
• Only provide detailed examples where necessary.
AFTER you have read the article, and determined what information you need in your summary, read
my summary on the next page.
Writing a Professional Summary
There are two reasons that we do professional summaries in this class. First and foremost, you will
likely need to summarize a meeting or article for your boss or your employees someday. Second,
you will need this skill for the introduction of your final exam persuasive essay.
So, how do you summarize effectively? You need to answer as many of the question words as
possible:
Who, What, Where, When, Why, and How
Let's look at those more carefully in the context of an article:
1. WHO wrote the article? Who is it about? Who is providing the information in the article?
Who is the target audience?
2. WHAT is the article about? What is the article telling you? What is the purpose of the
article?
3. WHERE was the research in the article done? Where is this article referring to?
4. WHEN was the article written? When was the research in the article done? When is it
referring to?
5. WHY is this article important? Why did the author write it?
6. HOW was the research in the article done? How does this affect you/your workplace?
These are some of the questions you will want to answer when writing your summary. You may
not be able to or need to answer all of these questions, but if this information is in the article, you
need to include it in your summary.

Summary of “Business Advantages of Diversity in the Workplace” by Michael D. Lee, MBA
Michael D. Lee, MBA, a professional speaker and diversity consultant, cites the U.S. Office of
Employment as saying that almost a third of workers in the U.S. labor force will be minorities by 2008.
This increase in minorities brings distinct advantages, but some companies overlook or don't quite
understand these benefits. Lee says, “Diversity needs to be seen as an integral part of the business plan,
essential to successful products and increased sales.”

What Can One Person Do?
Secondary Research Project
Your mission, should you choose to accept it, is to create a shareable educational
resource about a particular structural inequality. In it, you will 1) describe the structural
inequality and 2) recommend at least 1 specific action people can take to help disrupt,
dismantle, or otherwise work against that structure. There are 3 major components to this
project: the resource itself, a 2-3 page reflection piece, and a Works Cited. Instructions
for each can be found below.
In doing this assignment, you’ll get the chance to:
• Synthesize information and ideas you’ve come across in the
readings, conversations, and assignments.
• Reflect on how education can be a crucial component of being an
active, engaged member of your community and of society as a
whole.
• Produce a concrete resource that you can put out into the world
about your topic.
Educational Resource Instructions
For the resource itself, I’m giving you a fair amount of freedom. You have to create an
educational resource, but the exact form it takes is really up to you. Some options people
have done in the past:
• Write an editorial/article about your topic that could be submitted
to a newspaper or other periodical. (You don’t have to actually
submit it.)
• Create a brochure about your topic that can be printed and
distributed.
• Create a short zine about your topic that can be printed and
distributed.
• Produce a short podcast or video about your topic.
• Create a blog post (with links for more info) about your topic.
• Create a website about your topic.
• Create an educational board game or video game about your topic.
• Something else that you come up with (and get approved by me)
While you have a lot of freedom for the form of the project, there are certain criteria that
all projects must meet. To get full credit your resource must:
• Be targeted towards a particular audience (likely a particular
group of stakeholders for the issue)—Think about whom you want
to reach. Who is likely to care about the issue if they learned about
it? Who might be willing and able to take action?
o Your target audience should influence the form and
language of the project. For example, you probably
wouldn’t create a video game if your target audience is
Idaho congresspeople (or maybe you would?).
• Contain the following components
1. A short background on the situation. Explain what is going
on, how it’s unequal, and why we should care about it.
2. A description of the communities that are most impacted by
the issue and how they are impacted. This is related to the
previous component; one way to make people care about an
issue is to show them the harm it is causing to a particular
group of people.
3. A description of at least 1 important cultural story or belief
that helps sustain the conditions of inequality. As Schwalbe
argues in Ch. 4—Arresting the Imagination, cul.
