In America, the management of workers by "assimilation into the workforce" is being replaced by the "integration of diversity." How would the author explain this shift in approach?
I agree with some of the points made by Sowell. The integration of other cultures advances is so important to the growth of others. As pointed out by Sowell “cultures have enriched each other in all the great civilizations of the world.” (Pg 77) If we do not allow ourselves to learn from others then we are allowing other cultures to be more advanced and influential.
This can translate into many the facets of our lives. The workforce is one that is extremely important. In the society that we live in today, we are around so many diverse individuals. We can decide to assimilate to the environment that we find ourselves in or we can disengage ourselves. I believe that the “integration of diversity” in the workplace in most parts of the U.S. is inevitable. There is so much diversity that whether we as individuals choose to be around it or not it will be there. How well individuals deal with "Assimilation into the workforce" will determine how well we learn and grow from it.
Sowell provided many examples of how this is not new to mankind. We have been doing this for centuries and will continue to do so.
How does religion affect employees ' roles and performance in a multicultural workplace?
My initial thought when I think of religion in the work place is that it should not be there. Then I think of the people of this country and how we have the right to choose whatever religion we wish. People carry their religion and beliefs everywhere they go and that includes work. It is one of the diversities that we will find in our workplace. As long as it is not extreme or offensive and does not affect other employees it should be allowed in the workplace. If religion is prohibiting a person or others from successfully performing their job, then that job is not right
