Workplace diversity refers to the variety of differences between people in an organisation. That sounds simple, but diversity encompasses race, gender, ethnic group, age, personality, cognitive style, tenure, organisational function, education, background and more.
Diversity not only involves how people perceive themselves, but how they perceive others. Those perceptions affect their interactions. For many employees to function successfully within an organisation, they need to deal effectively with issues such as communication, adaptability and change. Diversity will increase significantly in the coming years, post the pandemic. Successful organisations recognise the need for immediate action and will prioritise gaining the resources on managing diversity in the workplace.
Managing Diversity is about dealing with our conditioning (unconscious bias) and responses when we interact with others. Diversity is about difference. Difference is part of our human nature.
