Wong makes note of the key how equity and inclusion should be focused on more than diversity and equality. \u201cCreating an inclusive culture for a diverse workforce requires becoming conscious of social identities and seeing how they are experienced in a particular context, such as the workplace.\u201d. This quote encapsulate the cor beliefs of Wong\u2019s argument. It demonstrates the need for a holistic review of each individual who works in a company in order to truly understand te needs of the community as a whole. The idea of diversity is placed as the end goal while equity and inclusion are set as necessary markers of success along the way. The difference between equity and equality comes into play as Wong suggests that \u201cRather than assume everyone is the same (or should be), it is crucially important to seek to understand how differences in identities and experiences inform how we interact with our surroundings and each other\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><span style=\"text-decoration: underline\"><strong>Question 2 Response<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Wong relates each paragraph to each other in a way that enhances the form and emphasises the function of her writing. Through her text, there is a frequent use of transition words\/ phrases. Some examples of these are \u201cAlthough\u201d, \u201cIn contrast\u201d, \u201c On the individual level\u201d, and \u201cRegardless of the primary motivation\u201d. Each of these phrases help the reader to identify a switch of topic while understanding how it relates to the overall argument. Wong also uses this same format to introduce the direct citations in the 6th paragraph \u201cFor example, gaps in pay equity among men and women are the result of gender bias, but patterns of significantly lower pay and larger pay gaps experienced by women of color reveal compounded influences of the sexist and racist bias in U.S. cul- ture more broadly construed (Hegewisch &amp; Williams-Baron, 2018).\u201d. This quote directly lets the reader know that what she is about to say provides supporting evidence to her claim without abruptly shifting from her own choice of words.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Question 1 Response \u00a0\u201cChanging Organizational Culture,\u201d\u00a0 by Cori Wong examines the differences between equity, equality, diversity, and inclusion.
