@littleWanic I believe that some technology is good and in the world we live in today, if organizations do not stay up to date with the technology they will not succeed. However, it does worry me that technology is taking up so many jobs, this needs to be stopped.

@mattie_dukes17 My favorite reason from this article was "staying innovative" because I think it is so important to find new ways to connect with consumers. However, I do believe people can become distracted by too much-complicated technology.

@OrgCommChat As a leader, I believe I am good at making people feel comfortable and I am extremely approachable. However, I have not been a leader in many settings so I believe it is a skill I need to have more experience in to know what my strengths are.

@ally_rabbitt @OrgCommChat I believe that Oprah Winfrey is a really good leader. She is understanding, passionate, and extremely charitable.

@GraceGraubart When looking for a leader, I tend to look for someone who does not think they are above the rest of the group because of their position. I think this is a quality that all of the leaders in this article have, and employees evidently respect this.

@joshkrat1999 It's awesome that you took age discrimination into your stride and used it to your advantage. Most people, including me, feel unmotivated when they are discriminated against.

Last week, we talked about workplace diversity, discrimination, and intersectionality. The article that I provided details a group of ex-Nike employees who banded together and decided to sue Nike for discriminating against women in the workplace. The article details... #COMM11A

@madi_TCU I totally agree. Tons of companies try to pull off the image that they are extremely inclusive to everyone, but in reality there is a bunch of underlying discrimination.

[Daisy Dalzell-Piper @dalzell_piper]

@ally_rabbitt I totally agree with the age thing. I had a bunch of jobs in high school and because I was super young I think being devalued by abilities aswell.

[Daisy Dalzell-Piper @dalzell_piper]

@OrgCommChat I would say a key element of my personal brand is just being social. I am extremely social in everything I do and I do not think I would be able to live without that aspect of my life.

[Daisy Dalzell-Piper @dalzell_piper]

were discriminated against on the basis of your age, race, sexual orientation, or something else?

...the fact that women are paid less, and often passed over when considering promotions. Diversity and fairness in the workplace are vital for a productive and creative workplace. After reading this article, can you think of any examples in your life or workplace in which you...

@OrgCommChat The desired occupation I have is in real estate. This profession seems to be 48.5% women, so it appears to quite gender-balanced. I am not really sure why this is, but I think it could be because women may be more approachable, making them good at candidates to sell homes.

@Cpetlansky ...trying to avoid it.

[Daisy Dalzell-Piper @dalzell_piper]

@Cpetlansky ...this leads to men in positions of power more than women. I believe that the most effective ways to combat the glass ceiling are being educated on it and talking about it. If people in the workplace talk about it it becomes less likely to happen because people are constantly...

[Daisy Dalzell-Piper @dalzell_piper]

@Cpetlansky One factor that contributes to the glass ceiling is psychology. This happens to recruiters, who tend to hire people who are similar to them. When cisgender men are in a position of power they are more inclined the hire more cisgender men just because they have more in common...

@GraceGraubart @OrgCommChat ...company is managed by a man. I can't think of any specific TV show or movie examples, but I am sure I have seen this in many movies and TV shows as well.

[Daisy Dalzell-Piper @dalzell_piper]

@GraceGraubart @OrgCommChat I found the statistics in this article to be quite shocking and kind of sad. The difference in the percentage of women who progress in companies is about half of that percentage of men. I have definitely seen examples of the glass ceiling in real life, as every huge corporate...

@OrgCommChat I recently watched Black Swan and although it is disturbing at times I loved the dancing and the storyline was so captivating. Its a new favorite!

[Daisy Dalzell-Piper @dalzell_piper]

@Cpetlansky I think it is more important for leaders to emphasize emotional culture over cognitive culture. I think it is really beneficial to productivity and happiness if workers share common values and norms about and within the workplace.
