    Multicultural and diverse working environments are not just about accepting cultural issues. They are about being open to accepting people's differences and having no prejudice about working with them. Not many know that almost 50% of people of color have quit their jobs due to being discriminated against. Then there is also the fact that companies that have diverse leadership also have a 36% higher financial benefit.
    Due to all this, more employers are including diversity and inclusion interview questions in search of candidates that will reflect that difference.

      They said it in question 9. You "serve diversity groups". How insulting to claim that I help people based on some diversity criteria. What if I do it because I care about all humans, and just don't care about their race, gender, blah bla blah. Is that a sin?

  • @A_friend_of_Aristotle
    @A_friend_of_Aristotle Год назад +11

    The 36% number is a statistic that is used here in a dubious manner.
    I would argue that diversity follows higher financial benefits and not the other way around. And I'm not speaking of it in any altruistic sense; as a company grows it does so only on the merit of it's employees and owners. As it expands it employs more people, who may or may not be more "diverse" racially or physically. One way in which companies that succeed do NOT become more diverse is in the culture necessary for success.
    To succeed, a culture of merit must be shared and promoted. Physical and emotional parasites cannot survive in such a culture and are often not even get a chance. Which is how it should be.

      I think it's important to take racist remarks headon. There's already conflict in a way that people are making discriminatory remarks in the first place. Reporting such incidences and taking action against such incidences is how we can keep the environment productive and inclusive. I know it might make us look bad at first but in the long-term it is the right thing to do in helping us build a diverse, equitable and inclusive workplace.

    There is no evidence that diversity is the cause of any improvement. It is more likely to be the other way around. It is obvious that a successful growing company is more likely to be recruiting from further away, expanding geographically and recruiting from younger demographs that are more likely to be, or self-identify as, diverse. All of these factors will make success a cause of diversity, there is no evidence other than idle speculation that it is the other way around.

      @@harminderkaur8186 It is when it's a cause and not an effect. Mistaking an effect for a cause is one of the mistakes DEI hiring makes. You do not become more profitable by hiring for a diverse workforce. You become profitable by hiring people who share common values and goals.
      Diversity for it's own sake is impractical and immoral. It often leads to internal strife (which is counterproductive) and promotes the kind of behaviors (such as unspoken racism) it is intended to prevent. This is why you see HR department staff who promote and use DEI in the hiring process being laid-off first, followed by the unfortunate people they hired. This has been happening in the technology sectors and will continue as the economy tips into recession.
      Hiring people based on DEI objectives does not add value to a business enterprise...and the first people to notice it are the managers who hand out the pink slips.

      Hi there. While there is some overlap in skills and objectives, we'd say that DEI focuses on diversity, ensures fair treatment and equal opportunities for all employees, and fosters an inclusive environment where everyone feels valued and empowered to contribute.
      People management, on the other hand, encompasses a broader range of responsibilities including hiring, training, motivating, and evaluating employees to achieve organizational goals.
      Hopefully this helps.
