During one interview, she noticed that the candidate never made direct eye contact.She
4、 was puzzled and somewhat disappointed because she liked the individual otherwise.He had a perfect resume and gave good responses to her questions, but the fact that he never looked her in the eye said untrustworthy, so she decided to offer the job to her second choice.It wasn tuntil I attended a di
5、versity workshop that I realized the person we passed over wasthe perfect person, Tiffany confesses. What she hadn t known at the time of the interview wasthat the candidate s different behavior was simply a cultural misunderstanding. He was an Asian-American raised in a household where respect for
6、those in authority was shown by averting (避开 ) your eyes.I was just thrown off by the lack of eye contact; not realizing it was cultural,Tiffany says.“Imissed out, but will not miss that opportunity again.”Many of us have had similar encounters with behaviors we perceive as different. As the worldbe
7、comes smaller and our workplaces more diverse, it is becoming essential to expand ourunderstanding of others and to reexamine some of our false assumptions.Hire Advantage名师归纳总结 精品学习资料 - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -精心整理归纳 精选学习资料 - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - 第 1 页,共 24 页 - - - - - - - - - . eliminate
8、invalid biases ( 偏见 ) from the process have a distinct advantage. My company, Mindsets LLC, helps organizations and individuals see their own blind spots. A real estate recruiter we worked with illustrates the positive difference such training can make.“ During my Mindsets coaching session, I was ta
9、ught how to recruit a diversified workforce. I recruited people from different cultures and skill sets. The agents were able to utilize their full potential and experiences to build up the company. When the real estate market began to change, itwas because we had a diverse agent pool that we were ab
10、le to say in the real estate market muchlonger than others in the same profession.Blinded by GenderDale is an account executive who attended one of my workshopson supervisinga diverseworkforce. Through one of the sessions, I discovered my personal bias,he recalls. I learned Ihad not been looking at
11、a person as a whole person, and being open todifferences. In his case,the blindness was not about culture but rather gender.I had a management position open in my department; and the two finalists were a man and awoman. Had I not attended this workshop, I would have automatically assumed the man was
12、 thebest candidate because the position required quite a bit of extensive travel. My reasoning wouldhave been that even though bothcandidates were great and could have been successful in theposition, I assumed the woman would have wanted to be home with her children and not travel.Dale s assumptions
13、 are another example of the well-intentioned but incorrect thinking that limitsan organization s ability to tap into the full potential of a diverse workforce.I learned from the class that instead of imposing my gender biases into the situation, I neededto present the fullrange of duties, responsibi

He recalls a major lessonlearned from his own em
15、ployee.One of my most embarrassing moments was when I had a Chinese-American employee put in a request to take time off to celebrate Chinese New Year. In my ignorance, I assumed he had his dates wrong ,as the first of January had just passed. When I advised him of this, I gave him a tong talking-to
16、about turning in requests early with the proper dates.“ He patiently waited, then when I was done, he said he would like Chinese New Year off, not the Western New Year. He explained politely that in his culture the new year did not begin January first, and that Chinese New Year, which is tied to the
17、 lunar cycle, is one of the most celebratedholidays on the Chinese calendar. Needless to say, I felt very embarrassed in assuming he had his dates mixed up. But I learned a great deal about assumptions, and that the timing of holidays varies considerably from culture to culture.Attending the diversi
18、ty workshop helped me realize how much I could learn by simply askingquestions and creating dialogues with toy employees, rather than making assumptions and trying to be a know-it-all, Doug admits. The biggest thing I took away from the workshop is learninghow to be more ?inclusive to differences.A
19、Better Bottom LineAn open mind about diversity not only improves organizations internally, it is profitable as well.

One of the best things my company has done is to contract with a language service that offers translations over the phone. It wasn t until my boss received Mindsetstraining that she was able to understan
21、d how importantinclusiveness was to customer service. As a result, our customer base has increased. Once we start to see people as individuals, and discard the stereotypes, we can move positivelytoward inclusiveness for everyone. Diversity is about coming together and taking advantage of our differe
22、nces and similarities. It is about building better communities and organizations that enhance us as individuals and reinforce our shared humanity.When we begin to question our assumptions and challenge what we think we have learned from our past, from the media, peers, family, friends, etc., we begi
23、n to realize that some of our conclusions are flawed (有缺陷的 ) or contrary to our fundamental values. We need to train ourselves to think differently, shift our mindsets and realize that diversity opens doors for all of us, creating opportunities in organizations and communities that benefit everyone.
