Hello, good day. Actually, this is a favor. I am piled with other
reqs right now and one of our teachers just informed us today that this day is the due of our task, but unfortunately, I am working on other reqs too. Please, help me. Hoping for your kind consideration!
Gardenswartz and Rowe describe the internal dimensions as those that have a powerful impact on the way we treat others and the opportunities presented to us in organizations. Additionally, they maintain that these six internal dimensions are relatively out of our control. They describe the external dimensions as more controllable, but still important factors for the way people are treated at work. Although they cited Loden and Rosener in their use of primary and secondary dimensions in their model, Gardenswartz and Rowe also made modifications to these circles, adding factors like "personal habits" as an external dimension of a person's social identity.
Loden doesn't necessarily agree with the adaptation of her model, which Gardenswartz and Rowe call, "the Four Layers of Diversity." Loden says the Gardenswartz and Rowe version mixes individual and group-based differences. She thinks this confuses a key point she was making: that group-based differences have a major impact on individual perceptions, experiences, and opportunities. As such she prefers to omit the focus on individualism and personality.
Loden believes describing the primary and secondary dimensions as internal and external differences in the Gardenswartz and Rowe model is misleading. "I don't see the distinction between internal and external as helping to illuminate the model. In fact, I'm not sure what it means."
She also thinks the addition of personal and recreational habits to the diversity wheel can water down the important key differences. "These categories are just not in the same league as dimensions like family status, military experience, and communication style. They don't really belong in the discussion."
Lastly, Loden wishes that the derived model did not separate organization role and affiliation from other secondary dimensions. "Again, it over-complicates what the diversity discussion is about," she says, "giving too much prominence to organizational dimensions of diversity."
In your understanding, what is the implication of the different models of diversity in your own classrooms in the future (as a future teacher)?
