What is diversity? What does it mean to you? To society?
Diversity is defined as real or perceived differences among people that affect their
interactions and relationships, in particular, real or perceived differences among people in race,
ethnicity, sex, religion, age, physical and mental ability, sexual orientation, work and family
status, and weight and appearance. The best example for diversity is the United States. It is a
country of variety culture and race, as it is called the melting pot. I consider diversity as having
or being composed of different types of people. Apart of these definitions diversity also have
wonderful meanings of acceptance and respect in it. It is an understanding that each individual is
unique and recognizing our individual difference. This can anything like race, ethnicity, gender,
sexual orientation, status, age, believes e.t.c Therefore, diversity also has meaning of
understanding each other and moving above and beyond to respect and love one another equally.
Diversity can help a nation to understand that each individual is unique and recognizing our
individual difference. Therefore, diversity in society teaches us to accept differences in others
and look beyond the base emotions of language, culture, race and color that make us racists or
sexists, for example. It teaches us to be more open and accepting of things that are different from
us and in that process makes us more adjustable and open.
The United States of America was built by a diverse group of people. The strength,
resilience, and richness of the United States of America are based on the diversity of its citizens.

their age, national origin, disability, gender, or race. Each of us has our own unique background
and talents.If America has no diversities, it will be just an ordinary country like many others.
Being versatile and diverse is what makes us unique and strong.Therefore, it is important to
society. Personally, cultural competence and diversity is important. Leading positive attitude,
understanding each other’s culture and respecting them, their practices, skills and communicating
in an efficient manner are the skill necessary for accepting diversity. It is very important because
America is a melting pot. People from all over the globe are visible here. Therefore coping to
cultural competence is necessary.
What is the relationship between compliance with legislative acts and valuing diversity?
Explain.
Laws are still necessary to help reduce discrimination and increase opportunities for non-
dominant group members, but that they are not sufficient to ensure “valuing diversity.” Without
the laws, many of the advances of women, minorities, people with disabilities, and other non-
dominant group members would not have been attained. Without the laws, progress would
probably be even slower.
The relationship between compliance with legislative acts and valuing diversity is that
organizations have to reach out all parts of employment and customer markets, maximum
productivity, values and potential. It is done by going beyond the matter of compliance by
valuing and mannering the diversity. This it is a formula of going above and beyond. Thus,
enabling the company to develop the opportunities that this can offer. It is also a company’s key
