Kaplan and Donovan\u2019s article drew upon the importance of visual maps regarding diversity and inclusion. The article starts by going into detail about a manager\u2019s day and then explains each key inclusion concept. Key concepts then are seen, such as intent and impact, unconscious bias, insider-outsider dynamics, and levels as systems. By learning about \u201cKim\u201d, readers know that good intent does not always mean good impact. Kaplan and Donovan use these key concepts to explain Kim\u2019s day in the office. Failures of intent can get even worse when diversity is a goal. Kaplan and Donovan clarify that because we aren\u2019t educated about everyone around us, our \u201cunconscious bias\u201d blurs the reality that we perceive. Insider-outsider dynamics often create a decorrelation between intent and impact. When talking about unconscious bias, ultimately, in the recruitment process, it takes place, causing a plethora of candidates not to be seen or heard. With insider-outsider dynamics, it is explained that there are unfair advantages for insiders, while there is a disadvantage for outsiders. When it comes to levels as systems, Kaplan and Donovan define four levels that help to understand successful inclusion. The authors then explain what Kim could have done differently and how she could have applied these key concepts to create healthy inclusion. This hypothetical situation is very relatable, I would assume, to many managers, which produces almost a guideline for those reading it. Kaplan and Donovan\u2019s main points they want readers to take away are that when it comes to diversity and inclusion in the workforce, good intent does not always mean good outcomes, small changes can have a drastic positive effect, and continual development is needed to fully understand each other.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
