Diversity? Presumably you're also interested in hiring other nationalities, people who were trained in different fields, people who are coming from different functional areas, people who fit within various other of Belbin's team roles, more variety in terms of the Big Five personality traits, different MBTIs, people who have different intrinsic motivations for employment, people who exhibit different levels of creativity, and so on?
Or no? By 'diversity' you just mean girls? Why do you want girls?
- dudul 12y ago'Diversity' only works for gender, skin color and sexual orientation.
- anjc 12y agoThat's a limited view of what diversity means, and doesn't jive with full interpretations of it by researchers in the area of organisational behaviour, which would include ethnicity, culture, modes of learning, level of education, ability, and on and on and on. It certainly doesn't just mean 'gender'. You also can't hire or not hire somebody because of those things you mentioned by the way.
- dudul 12y agoMy comment was sarcastic. I do agree with you. To me 'diversity' is much more meaningful when you talk about where a person was born, where they grew up, what they studied, what they are interested in, etc.
- anjc 12y agoAh apologies. Not only do I agree with you, but what you're saying IS what 'diversity' is meant to represent.
