$3.$ What recommendations can you offer to help improve the experiences of the individual$/$ team$/$organizational$?$

Strive to be aware of and sensitive to the complex

implications of diversity in your organization.

$$ Assess and challenge your own beliefs, prejudices, and

stereotypes to increase your awareness of bias.

$$ Take efforts to root out illegal, discriminatory practices,

both overt and subtle, in your organization.

Look beyond readily observable biographical

characteristics and consider individuals$$ capabilities

before making management decisions.

$1.$ Educate your colleagues, subordinates, and others about

both the ethical and business case for diversity to increase

buy$-$in for diversity management.

$$ Identify the potential impact of diversity dynamics in your

groups and teams and be mindful of them when

administering assessments, building teams, and resolving

conflict.

$$ The more you understand and consider differences

between cultural values, norms, and identities, the better

you will be able to adapt to and manage cross$-$cultural

dynamics in your organization.

$2.$ Implement evidence$-$based best practices when developing

your organization$$s diversity management initiatives,

focusing on diversity, equity, and inclusion.

$$ Strive to develop a diverse culture and climate where

employees feel that diversity, equity, and inclusion are

valued and put into practice and feel safe to contribute as

their authentic selves.

$$ Be mindful of the fact that diversity management may not

be successful right away. There are many barriers to its

effectiveness, some avoidable $($e$.$g$.,$ authenticity and

tokenism$)$ and some unavoidable $($e$.$g$.,$ systemic bias, your

organization$$s cultural context$).$
