Collaboration skills are necessary to effectively work with people from different cultures and perspectives.

This helps to create a diverse and inclusive environment where everyone feels welcome and included. Additionally, sharing what you know allows others to benefit from your knowledge and expertise, fostering a sense of collaboration and learning.

    Explanation
    To be more competent in embracing diversity, it is important to recognize your own biases, as this self-awareness helps in challenging and overcoming them. Including different styles and cultures in decision-making, brainstorming, and feedback promotes a more inclusive and diverse perspective, leading to better outcomes. Modeling and encouraging open communication and teamwork create an environment where diverse voices are valued and heard, fostering collaboration and understanding. Disregarding people who don't think like you do and avoiding those who are different do not contribute to embracing diversity but rather perpetuate exclusion and narrow-mindedness.

    Which of the following are ground rules for embracing diversity?  (Choose all that apply.)

    • Respect others when they are talking.

    • Use personal attacks when you don't agree with someone.

    Correct Answer(s)
    A. Respect others when they are talking.
    A. Speak from your own experience instead of generalizing.
    Explanation
    The ground rules for embracing diversity include respecting others when they are talking and speaking from your own experience instead of generalizing. These guidelines promote open and respectful communication, allowing individuals to share their perspectives without judgment or prejudice. By respecting others when they are speaking, we create an inclusive environment where everyone's voice is valued. Speaking from our own experience instead of generalizing helps to avoid stereotypes and assumptions, fostering a deeper understanding and appreciation for diverse perspectives. Using personal attacks when we don't agree with someone goes against the principles of embracing diversity, as it promotes hostility and undermines respectful dialogue.
