Read Project 1 and Project 2 attached for background
information on Fig Technologies, as well as the lesson reading chapter materials
attached.
Fig Technologies has identified concerns at several of
their offices globally. Division has been noted on key teams based upon
religion and
sexual orientation. Several team members have complained that the
non-Christian holidays and LGBT celebrations are not recognized by the
established company celebrations or paid time off for observance. There have
been complaints with regard to coworkers making harassing
comments to this
effect.
The Executive Leadership Council has asked for you to draft an
assessment of these concerns and then to propose a plan of action for
addressing these concerns. Further, include a preliminary draft of policy to be
included as an addendum to the organizational policy on discrimination and
harassment. In your report, be sure to address the following:
Compare the impact of different religious beliefs and
practices (choose three to four different religions) and how these affect the
organizational culture, and describe how your new plan and policy will improve
organizational culture through inclusion of different religious beliefs and
practices.
Compare how belief systems of different gender
orientations and sexual orientations may impact the organizational culture, and
describe the effects of discrimination against any of these.
In your plan of
action, address how inclusion and assimilation of different orientations
will
improve organizational culture.
Support the recommendation through the use of at least
two sources, one of which can be the Chapter reading material. Content should
be three pages in length and
the length does not include an assessment tool, if used, though it may be added
as an addendum. All sources used,
including the Chapter reading material, must be referenced; paraphrased and
quoted material must have accompanying citations. All references and citations
used must be in APA style.
Have some fun with the assignment. Use your creative
thinking along with your critical thinking to include your perspective of the
findings and how to address the issue.
