Diversity in Management: Fading Out

When applying a critical perspective on the subject of diversity within the workplace in the state of California, one is able to observe that diversity lessens when you examine managerial positions. As companies speak on the promotion of diversity, racial minorities are not being employed in higher number within such fields. If one were to assign blame, it would be on institutional racism and its presence within our culture--not the managers or the companies themselves. A company has the ability to create a hiring plan to promote diversity; however, it appears to be superfluous when there are many qualified individuals to hire already. In a practical sense, if one has the skills for a position, is it necessary to hire with it in mind? Assuming that diversity is an ideal in the workplace, a course of action must be employed.
