Assignment : Leading and Developing a Diverse Workforce

In a culturally diverse workplace, team members differ in their thinking, experience, background, working habits, emotions, personalities, and behaviors.

They can also differ in physical characteristics such as height, race, color, age, gender, and physical abilities. Identify three ways in which diversity will impact your leadership style and employee development strategies.

Tasks:

Consider the following points in your responses:

•Explain how to increase or foster cultural and diversity awareness and sensitivity.

•Discuss ethical guidelines to adopt or initiate to motivate, engage, and develop diverse teams.

•Formulate steps that would enhance your own professional repertoire to better enable you to mentor/coach/develop a diverse workforce that would engender recognition and loyalty.

Your final product will be a 3- to 4-page Microsoft Word document (not including the title and the reference pages).

Utilize at least three professional literatures. Professional literature may include the online library resources; relevant textbooks; peer-reviewed journal articles; and websites created by professional organizations, agencies, or institutions (websites ending in .edu or .gov).

Your paper should be formatted following current APA standards; written in a clear, concise, and organized manner; demonstrate ethical scholarship in accurate representation and attribution of sources; and display accurate spelling, grammar, and punctuation.
