You can’t always tell what people mean when they talk about Diversity, it gets confusing, so in this show I’m going to talk about 3 types of Diversity that will help you cut through the confusion
Get your pen and paper ready because I’m going to explain 3 types of Diversity you need to understand to create inclusion
In todays show I discuss several things including:
- The confusion caused by people talking about Diversity
- 3 Types of Diversity You Need To Understand
- Why we don’t talk about Equality and much much more
Here’s some of what I share in the show:
Diversity as a management approach recognises and values differences
“Here we define diversity as a management approach that recognises that as individuals we have differences, AND that there is value in the differences that we have”
Surface level diversity is concerned with demographic differences
“Surface level diversity typically refers to demographic differences, some of these may be detectable but others are not, common examples include age, gender, ethnicity, ability, now you may think that I’m talking about physical differences that we have but that’s not true.”
Deep level diversity is concerned with differences in beliefs, attitudes and ways of thinking
“deep level diversity refers to individual differences that may be difficult to support, they are called deep level because they may not be observable and refer to characteristics within us: our beliefs, our attitudes, our personalities, our way of thinking”
