Your Personal Philosophy

Imagine you are new Chief Diversity Officer and you want to communicate your philosophy on diversity and inclusion and capitalizing on differences in the workplace.

In 2-3 pgs, articulate and provide the rationale and support (i.e., references) for your philosophy. 

But, remember this is aimed at a business audience so use language that would be compelling to that audience.

 Be sure to articulate your views on the debate between leveraging differences (as described by Davidson 2011) and a focus on traditional dimensions of diversity. 

Include a reference page in APA style with at least one resource outside of the course readings. This resource does not necessarily need to come from a peer-review journal.
