Week 9 Assignment
Application: Diversity in the Workplace
In this week’s Discussion, you thought about democracy in the
workplace. For this Assignment, you will consider how
democratic principles in the workplace are related to and might
be promoted by diversity. Diversity has different meanings; the
particular meaning held by an organization may shape that
organization in a variety of ways. Most organizations profess to
value diversity in the workforce, and employers view the
variety of talents and ideas that a diverse labor pool brings to
the job as an economic asset. Diversity may, however, produce
more than just economic benefits for an organization. One way
to better understand diversity is to think about which aspects of
diversity are related to democratic principles. Another way to
approach diversity is to look at which democratic principles are
promoted in your own organization through diversity. As you
consider the concept of diversity, take note of underlying
aspects that may advance democracy in the workplace.
To prepare for this Assignment:
Review the article “A Contingency Approach to Representative
Bureaucracy: Power, Equal Opportunities and Diversity” in this
week’s Learning Resources. Think about the link between
diversity and representative bureaucracy in the workplace.
Review the article “The Ideal of Diversity in Organizations” in
this week’s Learning Resources.
Consider strategies for advancing diversity in the workplace.
Pay particular attention to matters such as individual difference
and equality as they relate to diversity in the workplace.
Reflect on basic democratic principles and consider how they
are related to diversity.
Select at least two democratic principles that you think are
promoted by diversity in the workplace and think about how
diversity might or does promote them.
The Assignment (1–2 pages):
Briefly describe the democratic principles that you selected.
Explain how diversity relates to and promotes the democratic
principles you selected.
Based on your analysis, share insights and draw conclusions
about how diversity relates to and promotes democratic
principles in the workplace.
Support your Assignment with specific references to all
resources used in its preparation. You are asked to provide a
reference list only for those resources
not
included in the Learning Resources for this course.
