Discussion 1: Leading a Diverse Workforce

/in /by

 

Diversity is a much broader term than it used to be. At one point in time, diversity referred to employees of differing genders, races, ethnicities, and cultures. Now, diversity refers to employees of differing ages, sexual orientations, physical abilities, geographic locations, religious beliefs, social economic statuses, and so on. It is no longer enough for leaders to simply promote tolerance; rather, leaders must continuously work to foster a culture of inclusivity. Doing so benefits all employees and creates an environment where differences can be leveraged to improve the competitive advantage of the organization.

In this Discussion, you will discuss the benefits of a diverse workforce and necessary competencies for leading a diverse workforce.

To Prepare: Read Chapter 16 in the Northouse text and the article “Diversity as an Aspect of Effective Leadership: Integrating and Moving Forward.” Pay particular attention to effective leadership attributes, behaviors, and styles for leading a diverse workforce. Read the article “Latino Millennials—The New Diverse Workforce: Challenges and Opportunities.” Reflect on the predicted growth of the Latino Millennial workforce, the discrimination and adversity Latino Millennials currently encounter in the workplace, and specific leadership strategies to embrace and engage Latino Millennials. Read the article “The Business Impact of LGBT-Supportive Workplace Policies.” Consider how LGBTQ-supportive workplace policies benefit organizations, and think about how leaders can cultivate LGBTQ inclusivity. Read Chapter 18 in the Sage Handbook. Consider age-related stereotypes and empirically supported differences between different age groups in terms of work-related capabilities, work motivation, work performance, and occupational well-being. In addition, identify leadership strategies for motivating and retaining employees from different age groups. Identify two benefits of a diverse workforce and two leadership competencies for engaging diverse groups of employees, creating a culture of inclusivity, and leveraging the strengths of a diverse workforce. Then, consider specific strategies you would use to help develop a leader in those areas. By Day 3

Post a response to the following:

Describe two benefits of a diverse workforce. Then, provide an argument for two leadership competencies you believe are essential to engage diverse groups of employees, create a culture of inclusivity, and/or leverage the strengths of a diverse workforce. Finally, describe specific strategies you would use to develop a leader in these areas, and explain why each would be effective. Be specific.

Provide examples of new safety guidelines that did not exist either when you were growing up, or when your parents were growing up

Safety is an important issue to consider when explaining the physical development in children and adolescence. For this discussion, you will address the following: Provide examples of new safety guidelines that did not exist either when you were growing up, or when your parents were growing up. Then, review What Is CRAAP? A Guide to Evaluating Web Sources ( https://content.bridgepointeducation.com/curriculum/file/f8a1ef48-2a27-4450-b3d0-242d91015f8d/1/CRAAP%20accessible.pdf ) and search the internet for credible sources. Provide one statistic for each of the three stages: infancy or toddlerhood, childhood, and adolescence. Address the social system (family, school, and the community) that is affected by this statistic if applicable. In other words, you will have one unique statistic for each of the three stages. Be sure to reference the site where the statistic was located.

See the example below:

One statistic found on the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention web page, under the Child Passenger Safety: Get the Facts, Risk Reduction for Every Age tab, states that, “Car seat use reduces the risk for death to infants (aged <1 year) by 71%; and to toddlers (aged 1–4 years) by 54% in passenger vehicles” (2017, para. 3).

Local Organization is:  Counseling and Resource Center of Dearborn

 

As your required text suggests, research is not only for those in academia. It is often a crucial consideration in leadership positions throughout organizations.

In this discussion, consider the organization you currently work for, or desire to work for, and imagine you are a leader in this organization. Consider scenarios that could potentially arise where utilizing research could be beneficial. Examples might be excessive tardiness, reduced production, low morale, and significant loss of customer base. You may use any example with the exception of those listed above.

For your initial post, Identify an organization in your location that complements the knowledge and skills you have developed during your program. (May be hypothetical.) Identify a leadership role that you would enjoy having within this organization. If you are not interested in a career, identify something that you think would be rewarding if you were advancing your career. Identify the following in association with this organization and position: Research question: What is happening in the organization that could be researched? Narrowing a Topic and Developing a Research Question (Links to an external site.) Hypothesis: State why you believe it is happening. What dependent variables/factors do you believe may be affecting your chosen scenario (i.e., age, workload, work shift, ineffective communications)? What type of factor did you identify (i.e., nominal, ordinal, interval, or ratio)? Are there any potential extraneous variables? Why or why not. If so please list two to three. Method: What method would best reflect an accurate analysis of the situation (e.g., quasi-experimental or phenomenology, etc.)? Include your rationale. Lastly, discuss how an understanding of the basics of research and statistics can help a person in decision making, whether in an organization, or even in a social situation.

Discussion posts should equate to approximately 350 to 400 words.
