Document Summary
Ids 159 final exam study guide: fall 2018. The same thing holds true in the workplace. Their approach to conflict management is compromise: flexible thinkers don"t lock themselves into one mode of thought. Rather, they can adjust mentally to different situations: people who develop their diversity consciousness are more valued employees. They can help team members work together to improve the quality of their products/services and increase profits. Therefore, the importance of diversity consciousness is not some feel good or being tolerant. It relates directly to the bottom line, productivity and profit. We don"t live in a meritocratic system in which people get ahead solely on the basis of merit.

Nevertheless, he hires older people because of equal opportunity laws.
