One thought on “Lack of Diversity in Hiring Practices Leading to Vulnerability”
Greetings Tamara,
I absolutely think that this is a pressing issue that affects many organizations and companies through out the country. One thing that I wanted to bring to your attention is unconscious biases in hiring processes. http://www.forbes.com/sites/ellenhuet/2015/11/02/rise-of-the-bias-busters-how-unconscious-bias-became-silicon-valleys-newest-target/#43c082b87cb1
Making the lack of diversity within the company an urgent matter is a first good step. Then we must take a look at whether this is a blatant act of discrimination, https://www.eeoc.gov/ or if it is as series of hiring practices that on their surface seem neutral but in fact marginalize groups of potential employees.
