Describe insights or reminders gained from the readings. Be specific to demonstrate your engagement of the module materials âdo not simply summarize or regurgitate the readings but focus on these issues:
What did you learn about diversity conflict in organizations? How do the concepts, etc., presented enrich your understanding of the ways in which organizations and the people working in them function?
What sort of diversity conflict have you witnessed in organizations in your present or past (or in the organizations of your loved ones if youâve only âwitnessedâ it from a distance)? Explain in terms of the concepts presented in the readings.
Consider how the Giraffe and Elephant âkey dynamicsâ relate to diversity management
How will these concepts affect the way that you will behave in the organizations in your life?
Be sure you tie in having done the Personal Diversity Maturity index and connect it to the readings. And what did you learn about yourself from doing it? (For instance, how did you score? Did any situations prove easier or harder for you?)
