Reflection On Diversity

Jopwell is a recruiting firm which connects the minority job candidates with the Tech companies in Silicon Valley. The main issue faced by the Tech companies is that the referral candidates are not serving the purpose and they can’t find talented minority candidates suitable to their companies. The companies are aware of the benefits like increased financial returns by having diversity in their workforce. Jopwell is currently serving 45 companies by providing them a pool of thousands of talented minority candidates and has been successful in placing a significant number of candidates in these companies. The company is focussing on diversifying the whole organization by filling the non-technical roles as well like finance, marketing,

The concept of diversity is one that individuals may not think of when they think of nursing. Diversity is a major component to nursing and the care that is provided to patients. In this concept analysis, antecedent, attributes and consequences of diversity are identified. The following antecedents are: race, social economy, knowledge, gender, and education level. The attributes of diversity are individual, variety, perception, difference and civilization. The consequences of diversity are as follows; acceptance, decision making, cultural competency qualifications, respect, degrading, trusts

What does diversity mean to you? It’s often hard to identify diversity and what it means to us. We see diversity and its impact on the world, but we don’t always see the issues right before us. What about intolerance right here, right now? What about stereotypes and judgments made about someone based upon his or her sexual orientation, race, or economic status? We see it every single day in the news, on college campuses, etc. People sometimes become uneasy when we talk about the concept of diversity. Sometimes, we are

Diversity is defined as “the condition of having or being composed of differencing elements” (Webster Dictionary). Through my clinical experiences I have seen a lot of diversity whether it be different ethnicity, the family culture/make-up or students living with disabilities in the classrooms. Specifically, in my urban clinicals I saw more ethnicity and culture diversity differences between student to student and student to teacher relationships. However, in my suburban school clinical experiences I also saw diversity, but in a different way. Here I saw much more diversity in family make-up.

Within the first ten minutes of the most anticipated night on television, Jimmy Kimmel arrived in style with the help of “Game of Thrones’” Khaleesi and her dragon, roasted Republican candidate Donald Trump, and bragged about Hollywood’s growing diversity.

The purpose of this paper is to reflect upon the diverse experiences that I have had in my personal and professional life. Fortunately, I have had a large mix of diverse friends and experiences in my life. This paper will discuss those diversities as well as the plan to expand on my current knowledge.

I completely agree with the intro, that diversity is no longer black/white, male/female, old/young issue. One of my previous work experiences, with Aids Community Services, who provided full spectrum healthcare and assistance to the lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender community. I was exposed to the real side of that life-style and was educated to realities over stigmatisms. Such as, aids being a “gay” disease, there were various people who contracted it from their heterosexual relationship with a trusted mate, male and female. I was also recently exposed, at the same time, to two transgender individuals, one being female transgending to male and the other a male, transgending to female. Having to be in close contact with the transgending

The major question I feel like I didn’t answer well was my knowledge of culture and diversity. Specifically, I talked in depth about working with individuals with diverse ethnic backgrounds, but I did not think of diversity variables such as age, gender, SES, education level, etc. You should be prepared to talk about your clinical experiences (i.e., what they were, what your role was, were there any ethical issues that came up, etc.). For example, I worked as an in-home behavioral therapist for nonverbal autistic children, and we spent the most time talking about that during the interview. Finally, I can’t say if this question was specific to my program or not, but we also talked in length about self-care activities and time

On bases of diversity, I am certain that I relate to most of its aspects. I was born in Cameroon, a developing county in Africa. Moving to the United States exposed me to not just gender diversity, but also to racial cultural and religious diversity. I moved to the United States in 2015 at age 15 and started community college at age 16. At the time, I did not consider myself to be naïve, but I thought of how my life was going to be like in class. One of the advisors at my community college said to my mom “She is too young to be a fulltime college student. I’d advice she does at least a year of high school in the United State so that she will adapt to the lifestyle and prepare for college both socially and mentally.” Diversity is something I to I relate to and respect so much.

Today’s society is filled with many unique and fascinating people. Each person has had their own experiences. Some people have traveled the world, and others have participated in marathons. However, everyone is not equal in the world. While times have in fact changed dramatically over they years, such things as racism and discrimination still exist in today’s society.

is a good word to describe the world around you. Children who are coming to the kindergarten may

This project demanded me to be reflective of my educational history and be critical of what and how I learned. I was challenged to evaluate the null curriculum at my elementary school. I went to a Catholic elementary school, Sacred Heart, in the small town of Ladner. The majority of the students at my school where white, middle class children that came from ‘normal’ households. We were all put into boxes in order to conform to ‘society’ and we were not exposed to diversity as it was not present, or encouraged. Diversity did not exist within the walls of my school. I decided that I valued education that promotes the awareness, acceptance and respect of diversity. Because of that, I decided to create a series of activities combining elements

In analyzing the history of mankind, there seems to be a disturbing trend that threads through the accounts of inchoate relations between peoples of different races. We find that when human beings from heterogeneous societies encounter other human beings from other heterogeneous societies, the differences between those human beings tends to evoke distrust, ire, and disgust. “Us-against-them” constructs are summarily built, as people put up mental-emotional barriers for “protection,” in whatever form they need it to take. Although some (very exceptional) people conceive of the differences between themselves and others as nothing more than negligible physical details, others struggle to understand why they should give equal treatment to

When thinking about my diversity, you could think that, since I grew up in small town Iowa, I would have very little experience dealing with diversity of any kind. Fortunately, my family has done many things to expose ourselves to different cultures and experience diversity across the world. Although I am still stuck with some of the prejudices and biases that come along with growing up in a small, primarily-white town, I think I have also been well prepared to deal with the diversity that I have encountered at Wartburg College as well as the rest of the world.

I grew up on a farm in a small town that I always thought of as The Middle of Nowhere, Idaho (otherwise known as Howe). I went to school in Arco, a thirty-minute drive west, and I often traveled to Idaho Falls, which was over an hour in the other direction. All throughout these places, I did not notice that much diversity. Other than Mexican farmhands, none of my neighbors (if the miles between us would still establish us as neighbors) were anything other than white. The majority of students at my high school were white. All of the kids I knew in Idaho Falls were white. I grew up without knowing diversity. I could count on one hand the number of people I had met that were African-American. The only time I really saw diversity was in movies or TV shows or on the internet (and later at college).
