Frustrated by talk but little action and a lack of resources, many diversity executives find themselves rotating through C-suites
The killing of George Floyd on May 25 sparked protests over police brutality and systemic racism. WSJ’s Darren Everson spoke with black professionals to discuss their experiences and what changes they’d like to see. Photo illustration: Adele Morgan
The current public attention on race will help diversity officers in thier ability to be more effective. Problem is , diversity departments are usually the smallest & under resourced. Tough to convince execs to make diversity a chief priority.
That’s because in the real world outside of journalism & politics, all people are treated w respect; there is essentially zero racism of any kind. The useless people in media & politics should quit & join the workforce out of those areas. They might really love people & life.
Chief Diversity Officers? Can anyone say fraud waste and abuse. No wonder tuition is so high.
Diversity? Where everyone looks different but thinks alike? 🤔
Has anybody counted the number of ‘white oppressor / black victim’ tweets coming from WSJ? It is like a quarter of the tweets.
2- Because then employment becomes nothing more then a surreal expectation of what you are entitled to...rather then what you are willing to earn and/or achieve on your own accord, aspirations, and skill set.
1- Employment should be based on one narrative. Merit. It's sole basis is skill, work ethic, and the will and/or ability to achieve. [Anyone] deserves opportunity under those confines alone. To push [diversity] solely on [it's] merit, set's the unwilling up for certian failure.
It’s a scam
Imagine having an official in charge of hiring people based on what they are and not what they can do. The token finder.
If a company is focused on diversifying their work force on skin color I'll invest elsewhere. That is the shallowest, most unproductive type of diversity.
You can't have a diversity officer with 'chief' in the position title. It is offensive. In Duluth, MN they're trying to get rid of the word chief in all city position titles.
Diversity officers- one of the most useless jobs out there
Biggest waste of corporate money since they are all anti-capitalist Marxists. Their job is to destroy companies from the inside.
The job is an in-house cultural Marxism facilitator. People should refuse to work for companies that have any sort of diversity office.
The diversity is a farce, a con job. So they leave.🤔
Corporations might as well burn their money
That position in both government & corporations is an absolute mockery of its real purpose. They are literally bobblehead figures.
😂 companies that created 'chief diversity officers' might be the most pandering act imaginable. Nothing says 'we have to hire you to avoid the appearance of being racist' like hiring a chief diversity officer.
