The Importance of Valuing

Differences in the Workplace

Market Segments

Linguistic Skills

Ideas

Cultural Savvy

TalentSlide5

Market Segments

Businesses sell to an increasingly diverse customer base in a multicultural society.

Having

employees who come from different demographics and market sectors can only further a company's understanding of its customer base.

This

may help tailor approaches to sales, services and even product development.Slide6

Linguistic Skills

People from different backgrounds bring different languages with them.

This

can be a huge asset for communicating with customers and vendors--particularly for businesses situated in ethnic communities or selling to various ethnic markets

.

In an increasingly global market, companies with overseas operations, partners and vendors may also benefit greatly from having a multilingual staff.Slide7

Ideas

Smart companies encourage employees to come forward with ideas.

Creativity

and idea generation are among the most valuable assets to a growing company that wants to be innovative and take the lead in a market.

Employees of different backgrounds may have ideas about how to improve a product, service or marketing approach to better capture a the demographic or market segment from which they come.Slide8

Cultural Savvy

Knowing how to change a process or approach to meet different needs can be what sets an organization apart.

Staff

from different backgrounds may better understand the needs of a particular community or market.

For example, many city hospitals benefit from having Latino and Asian staffs who can not only speak to elderly patients with similar backgrounds, but who understand their needs.

They

may understand a particular culture's need to have a same-sex nurse or assistant when getting help in the restroom.

And

this can be

what

gets one hospital more business than another.Slide9

Talent

Talent comes in many packages.

People

of all backgrounds, colors, ages, shapes and sizes have important skills. Being open minded may be the difference between hiring good and hiring the best.

In

many cases, great talent comes from abroad.

Some

companies sponsor immigration for software engineers and information technology specialists when these skills are in short supply domestically.Slide10

Procedures for Treating Others Fairly at Work

Avoid showing favoritism toward one employee over another one. Doing so can cause the

unfavored

employee to resent you. What applies to one employee should apply to all. Do not discriminate based on race, age, religion, disability, sexual orientation, gender or any other quality.

Promote an employee solely based on how qualified he is to perform the job, not because of a personal relationship. Otherwise, his promotion will appear unfair to other employees who are more qualified to perform the job.

Post all job openings for all employees to see, instead of verbally telling an employee about an opening. By posting all job openings, employees have an equal opportunity to apply for open positions.

Listen to your employee. By listening to your employee, you send the message that her opinion and feedback is important. If you do all of the talking but never take the time to listen, it's unfair

.Slide12

Procedures for Treating Others Fairly at

Work (continued)

Provide

each employee with an employee handbook or rulebook to ensure he knows the rules. Disciplining an employee who is unaware of the rules is unfair. Along that same line, if one employee is disciplined for breaking the rules, all employees should be disciplined for breaking the rules.

Recognize and reward each employee for her accomplishments, regardless of where she is on the staff hierarchical structure.

Avoid “lording it” over your employees. Instead, treat your employees as equals. Remember that if it were not for the employees, you would not have a job. They need you. You need them. You're a team. It is OK to make a distinction if you are in management. However, your title should not make you superior.Slide13
