One version of diversity, as stated by Sandilya, is the variety or multiplicity of demographic features that characterize a company's workforce, in terms of race, gender, culture, religion, national origin, handicap, sexual orientation and age. (Sandilya, G.) If an organization is truly diverse, the organization receives different cultures, different belief systems, different perspectives and can overall be highly beneficial to an organization. Some challenges may involve the employees practicing their belief systems that others may not agree with and that may cause tension. It may help if the leadership recognizes the opportunities and challenges that diversity presents to the organization, embraces those opportunities, and commits to finding healthy solutions to the challenges. (The Denver Foundation). Some specific steps managers can take to promote positive social change within their organization may start in the hiring process. Managers can ensure that while looking over resumes, they ensure they are not hiring the same employees repeatedly.

This was great for the company because it brought in many business. Customers were comfortable shopping there because they can find someone to relate to and get fashion advise from.
