HOW DOES A STRONG CULTURE EFFECT AN
ORGANISATION’S EFFORTS TO IMPROVE
DIVERSITY?
STRONG CULTURE Could be one of the majority of the participants hold the same basic beliefs and values as applies to the organization. People in this group may follow the perceived rules and ethical procedures that are basic to the organization, even if those values are not publicly stated by the organization.
STRONG CULTURE
Can be extremely valuable for building a team where all the participants have the same goals. Working together to improve efficiency or, possibly, communication with management could be some of the goals. Have a greater impact on employee behavior and are more directly related to reduce turnover.
Effect of strong culture to the organizations in improving diversity
It is inherently a barrier to diversity because hiring new employees who, because of race, gender, disability, or other differences, are not like the majority of the organization’s members creates a paradox. Management wants new employees to accept the organization’s core cultural values but, at the same time, they want to support the differences that these employees bring to the workplace.
Strong cultures put considerable pressure on employees to conform. They limit the range of values and styles that are acceptable.
Organizations seek out and hire diverse individuals because of their alternative strengths, yet these diverse behaviors and strengths are likely to diminish in strong cultures.
Organization can use it strong culture to enhance diversity if it seeks out and hires diverse individuals because of their alternative strengths. If they effectively encourage the unique strengths that diverse people bring to the organization, they will eliminate any institutional bias/insensitivity to people who are different.
