Why do diversity efforts fail?
  • Emphasis on Appearance Only
  • Diversity by numbers
  • The company photo looks good
  • Everyone thinks the same
  • No new ideas or creativity
  • Little value to the organization
  • Company is a Diversity Pyramid
  • Diversity at the bottom levels only (usually
    unskilled labor or production)
  • Lack of diversity at the top levels
