Sha Case Study Analysis

Why would creating a business case for diversity be valuable to a company? What goes into creating a business case? Typically, a business case is used to provide the rationale of why a project is worth undertaking and why the time and investment is worth the cost. No matter what project you are advocating for, a business case has the following purposes:

• It explains why the project should be undertaken.
• It explains the economic value of the project.
• It explains the framework for completion (Baxter, 2002).

By reading an organisation's business case for diversity, you can gain insight into its goals to build and maintain a diverse workforce. In this Shared Activity, you will analyse Tarmac's business case for diversity and examine its approaches to managing diversity.

To prepare for this Shared Activity:

• Review Tarmac's Business Case for Diversity and the Learning Resources.

Identify any strong or weak points in Tarmac's approach to building and managing diversity.

Explain the issues that may impact the ability of Tarmac to build and manage a diverse workforce. Evaluate the business case for diversity: are the benefits of overcoming these issues greater than the costs and why?
