Progress Your Skills to understand…
The diversity definition refers to the existence of variations of different characteristics in a group of people. These characteristics could be everything that makes us unique, such as our cognitive skills and personality traits, along with the things that shape our identity (e.g. race, age, gender, religion, sexual orientation, cultural background).
People form stereotypes based on inferences about groups’ social roles—like high school dropouts in the fast-food industry.
Understand what other people are trying to communicate to you, so that you can speak to them with respect and attentiveness and in turn control the conversation. Influence others to affect their opinion and change their behavior, not the other way around. Persuade other people to agree with what you are saying or doing.
