Valuing diversity by recognizing, welcoming, and cultivating differences among
people so they can develop their unique talents and be effective organizational members
is difficult to achieve. Ethnocentrism can be a roadblock to this type of thinking.
Ethnocentrism is the belief that one's own group and subculture are inherently superior
to other groups and cultures. Ethnocentrism makes it difficult to value diversity.
Viewing one's own culture as the best culture is a natural tendency among most
people. Moreover the business world still tends To reflect the values, behaviors, and
assumptions based on the experiences of a rather homogeneous, white, middle-class,
male workforce. Indeed, most theories of management presume that workers share
similar values, beliefs, motivations, and attitudes about work and life in general.
These theories presume one set of behaviors best helps an organization to be productive
and effective and therefore should be adopted by all employees.
