Imagine that your supervisor knows you
\nhave just completed this course and asks you to devise a diversity action plan
\nfor your organization or division within your organization.  <\/span>Note: Choose a real or fictive institution
\n(i.e., school, NGO, charity, corporation, or governmental agency) as your
\nintervention site. Reflecting on the readings assigned in this course and
\nsupplemental activities, create a DEI assessment plan and toolkit for your
\norganization. Be sure to consider the most pressing social issues today, i.e.,
\nthe covid pandemic, racial justice issues, food insecurity, and anything else
\nyou foresee as a potential challenge to diversity and social justice in the
\norganization. <\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

Note : look at the examples links in the uploded file .<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

Explanation<\/span><\/u><\/p>\n

What is DEI? What is social justice<\/span><\/u><\/span><\/p>\n

What is workforce diversity?<\/span><\/p>\n

Why do we want and need \u201cdiverse\u201d
\norganizations?<\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/span><\/p>\n

Assessment<\/span><\/u> <\/span><\/p>\n

Assess the leadership and the
\norganizational culture of your chosen site.<\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/span><\/p>\n

Is your organization ready to adopt
\nDEI\/Social Justice? Share your thoughts on how you would begin to assess this
\nquestion and what methods you would use. Provide a justification for using any
\nof these DEI methods: Forming a committee, collecting data, Interviewing
\nstakeholder groups, other approaches.<\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/span><\/p>\n

Think for a moment about your
\ninstitution, organization, department, or work group. Whose voices are heard
\nand amplified, and who gets silenced or sidelined? Are all people treated in
\nfair and equitable ways? Who is allowed to take on leadership and
\ndecision-making roles?<\/span><\/p>\n

What internal structures and cultural
\naspects of the organization will you examine?<\/span><\/p>\n

What documents\/ areas of communication
\nare important to track and consider (mission, vision, etc.)?<\/span><\/p>\n

What ongoing data should be collected?<\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/span>How might you assess physical settings and
\nspaces?<\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/span>How might you assess leadership?<\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/span>What will you consider regarding how the
\norganization is communicating their commitment to diversity externally?<\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/span><\/span>Discuss hiring, training, promotion, mentoring processes.<\/span><\/p>\n

What issues would you focus on that we
\nhave covered in this class?  <\/span>What
\nemerging issues would you explore that we haven\u2019t considered?<\/span><\/p>\n

Given what you have learned this
\nsemester you can probably already begin to \u201cguess\u201d which diversity issues will
\nunveil-in other words, a common set of diversity issues that plague
\ninstitutions. Write a hypothetical list of some of those issues that you might
\nexplore, i.e., racist policies, lack of representation, access for persons with
\ndisabilities.  <\/span>Consider, and reflect on,
\nhow you would explore these issues. <\/span><\/p>\n

Once you decide and uncover the
\norganizational strengths and weaknesses, how will you begin to address them?<\/span><\/p>\n

What might an action plan look like?<\/span><\/p>\n

Pitching the Plan–Not all leaders in
\nyour organization will be on board, how do you propose getting them on board
\nfor instituting the plan.  <\/span>How do you
\nplan to move people in the organization toward new and inclusive ways of
\nthinking. <\/span><\/p>\n

How will you communicate your plan and
\nintentions internally \u2013 to your workers and externally?<\/span><\/p>\n

Outcomes measurements<\/span><\/u><\/p>\n

How will you know you are achieving
\nthe goals set forth in a diversity plan?<\/span><\/p>\n

What type of assessments would you
\ninstitute to measure changes in the organization?<\/u><\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/span><\/span><\/u><\/p>\n

Toolbox of resources and action steps<\/span><\/u><\/p>\n

What types of resources would you
\nprovide for ongoing success?<\/span><\/p>\n

What types of initiatives, programs,
\netc. might you suggest for future growth and success?<\/u><\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/span><\/p>\n

Project requirements<\/span><\/u><\/p>\n

\nbibliography<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n
