IA is Elemental: People are Fundamental at World IA Day 2020 PittsburghCarol Smith
Information architects work in a system with ourselves at the center. We are fundamental to making great experiences and as such, we must care for ourselves in order to best represent the people using the systems we are creating. Prioritizing the needs of users comes next, and with that protecting them by caring about diversity, inclusion and ethics. Finally, collaboration with colleagues and communities that influence our work can be done by educating them about IA work.

Editor's Notes
Diversity management can be understood as a historically situated concept. As a concept, Diversity management appeared and gained momentum in the USA in the mid-1980s. Diversity management can be defined as “Recognition and valorization of individual differences”. It is referred to as the key to growth in today’s fiercely competitive global marketplace. Thus in order to develop an inclusive culture, organizations that wish to seek global market relevancy and influence must embrace diversity – in how they think, act and innovate. Another thing organizations must understand is that diversity isn’t just about “making the numbers”, but rather how an organization treats its people authentically down to the roots of its core business model and ethics. Once diversity is embraced and recognized, a sense og unity is formed, resulting in a more comfortable working environment, allowing all employees to put unique value into their work

The work place has changed, the world has changed. Now, we are working globally. Therefore, company such as Apple will face different challenges from all over the world. Apple realize that and focus a lot on diversity management. The first thing we are going to look at is the ehtnicity. Ethnicity means a group of people that share similar cultural pracitces, perspectives, and backgrounds. So it does not neccessary has to do with race, it can be religion, where are you from, who are you grow up with.
DNAs have existed in a long time. Apple wants its employees to feel comfortable, supportive, and connected with others. The groups are very diverse from race (Asian, African American, Amigos) and religion ( Chrisitan, Muslims, Jewish) In addition, Apple also emphasize on LGBT’s right. The effort that Apple has put into Diversity Management would make every employees welcome and comfortable to work in the environment.
This is the graph that shows the new hires minorities in United States. The greyish line represent the current employees in Apple and the orange line represents the incoming employees. From the graph, it clearly shows that Apple has progressively increase its diversity by hiring different minorites into the group. In fact 54% of new employees are minorities. This indicates that Apple has put in effort to try to make its company to be more diverse.
