What is diversity?
Respecting a person's differences while being personally responsible
for creating an atmosphere that promotes the full involvement
of every employee.

Could you provide an example of other demographic trends that could have an impact on business in the 21st century?
oo• People with Disabilities - increased income levels and economic
oo• leverage will make them a stronger market force.

oo• Work - Life Issues-increasing number of employees are working
oo• from home, telecommuting, developing flexible benefit packages
oo• with employers.

oo• Sexual Orientation - buying power creates market opportunities.
oo• Enhanced ability to influence the buying decisions of non-traditional
oo• customers.

How does a diverse workforce impact business opportunities?
Lack of effective teams results in internal conflict and inefficiency -
products and services are becoming more complex, thus business is becoming more complex. Customers are becoming more diverse;
their tastes and needs are more sophisticated and demanding.
A diverse workforce simply creates better solutions.
