Education takes many forms-from a parent helping a baby take its first steps, through school and college, to doctoral study and training seminars at the workplace. Diversity consciousness can also be developed in many ways. Organizations need to develop diversity consciousness among employees in various functions and at all levels. Reflect on what you have learned about diversity consciousness and diversity education, and respond to the following:

• 1. How would you describe diversity consciousness to someone who has not heard of the term? Give an example of how it relates to your daily life either at work or outside.
• 2. Of the strategies for developing diversity consciousness listed in the chapter, which one or ones do you think would be most effective for you and why?
• 3. Has your workplace helped you to develop diversity consciousness, if so, how? Do you agree that this is a lifelong process, why or why not?
