Presented By :Tatva Leadership

2. What is Diversity ?........
• Diversity is “the ways in which we differ as individuals or
organizations and the commonalities and similarities that
justify and motivate diverse people and entities to work
collaboratively together, in order to achieve mutually
beneficial outcomes.”
• Diversity includes attribute differences such as age,
gender, ethnicity and physical appearance; as well as
personal differences such as thought styles, religion,
nationality, socio-economic status, belief systems,
sexual orientation and education.

3. We define diversity as “the collective mixture of differences and similarities that
includes for example, individual and organizational characteristics, values, beliefs,
experiences, backgrounds, preferences, and behaviors.”

7. Why is it important to understand
diversity?
Diversity is more than just tolerating
differences. It is:
• respecting, appreciating, and understanding the
varying characteristics of individuals.
• Everyone is unique and no single person is a
representative of a certain group. Stereotypes
and other racial biases/prejudices are damaging
to a business.

8. Cont...
What about “ generation?”
Definition: A body of individuals born in approximately the same time period
who generally share similar behaviors and attitudes.
Understand that there are now four (4) generations in the workplace
with different:
• expectations,
• motivations,
• attitudes, and
• behaviors.
An understanding of these generational differences can equip one to
handle workplace situations with increased insight.

9. The Four (4) Generations
• Traditionalists/Veterans (Born 1922-1945)
• Baby Boomers (Born 1946-1964)
• Generation X (Born 1965-1982)
• Millennia's/Generation Y (Born 1983-
1997)

10. What are the generations in your
organization?
How they differ:
• Preferred Leadership Approach.
• Communication Style. Motivational Buttons.
• How They Interact with Others.
• Preferred Approach to Feedback.
• View toward the Company.
• Work Vs. Personal Life.
• Desired Rewards.
• Financial Behaviors.
• Relationship with Technology.
• Expectations.

11. Benefits of Understanding
Generational differences:
• More effective communication
• less misunderstandings.
• Increased recruitment and employee retention.
• More effective motivational methods.
• Better-formed expectations.
• Increased productivity and teamwork.

12. Consequences of not managing
diversity.
• Discrimination
• breeds narrow-mindedness,
• impairs employee morale,
• strains employee relationships,
• and thus, damages productivity. Not to
mention, it is illegal and costly in terms of
litigation!

13. The Challenge of Workplace
Diversity?
• The challenge lies in the continuous
improvement of the integration and social
acceptance of people from different
backgrounds.
• Our differing human characteristics influence
the way we think, act, interact, and make
choices.
• Often, these differences interfere with our ability
to support, trust, and respect each other, and
thus to effectively function together.

14. Avoiding bias
• Similar-to-me effect – perceive others who are similar to
ourselves more positively than we perceive people who
are different
• Social status effect – perceive individuals with high social
status more positively than those with low social status.
• Salience effect – focus attention on individuals who are
conspicuously different.
• Knowingly and willingly denying divers individuals access
to opportunities and outcomes in an organization
