On organizational culture, for example, I\u2019ve been able to search one specific aim of research and find more studies about those type of findings. With my research this week, I have been looking further into neurodiversity, and diversity in general in the workplace, and how that can affect the success of a company. With this in mind, and in the midst of the world\u2019s focus right now, I think it\u2019s important to not only research and listen to the voices who talk about the importance of diversity in their company, but also the voices who are labeled \u201cdiverse.\u201d In many corporations, diversity quotas are put in place for PR reasons as well, but it\u2019s often not public knowledge how welcoming or healthy that culture even is for diverse employees. And this goes for racially, sexually, neuro etc. diverse people. The voice of the diverse is as important as the ones calling for diversity who may not be labeled as such. As the Austin and Pisano article stated, while adding diversity can help a company, there are accommodations that need to be in place to help the diverse employees as well.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p>3. The project of the writers in this case is to convince the reader of the benefits of diversity and inclusion in the workplace. Through five sections, they begin at a smaller level and move into bigger concepts before concluding with takeaways from the chapter. The first section begins at the level of one person\u2019s workday. This has the purpose of putting the authors in the reader\u2019s shoes for relatability. They then move on to beyond this perspective and discuss intent versus impact, as in how the actions of one affect others, calling the reader to question their own. Through the next three sections the authors move on to systematic framework and how the company as a whole can affect its individual parts with all things considered, overall moving from an individual perspective to one that affects and intertwines with the bigger company in mind, before concluding with the main ideas from each section: A sustainable inclusion effort must include change at four distinct levels: individual, group\/team, organization, and marketplace. Good intent is not good enough when the impact does not match the&nbsp;intent. Managing the impact of our biases is leadership. What the authors do\/\u201cwork on\u201d in this chapter is effective because they move between different perspectives and don\u2019t place the author as an other they are simply talking at. They raise counter arguments with responses to follow, and work <i>with<\/i>rather than against the reader to get them to agree with their proposals by the end of the chapter.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Through the Syracuse Library database, I have been able to search certain topics and find databases with many articles on that specific issue.
