Will We Take A Tangible Diversity Action Plan?

[anonymous]

Enough “conversation”. Don’t get left behind! This is the new normal...Action in Corporate America!

Best Buy Co. Inc. on Wednesday laid out a plan to boost diversity and inclusion among its workers and pledged at least $44 million for scholarships and other educational offerings for minority students.

The Richfield-based retailer also promised it would fill one of every three new, non-hourly corporate positions with people of color, and one of three non-hourly field positions with women candidates. That follows a pledge made earlier this year to make minority workers a
big part of an expansion of the company's technology-hiring efforts.

Thanks for your message and voicing your concerns as well as your suggestions and putting a message out there and also voicing your concerns and suggestions with solid gold proof of concept. Last week in conjunction with Wheels we announced the withdraw of all white fleet cars, delivery vehicles as well as all white light in our worldwide and global fleet. Also White vehicles both small and large will no longer be purchased or added to our fleet. In fact we will no longer allow employees to rent white vehicles during business trips. This demonstrates a sensitivity your company has to all things related to this massive issue globally and around the world. Thank you for your concern and voicing your vision for a better world out there.

A better world starts at home. Only they can control their communities (crime, fatherlessness, victimization, etc)

A successful organization hires based on merit, content of character and the best choice for the job. Gender, race, sexual orientation etc. should not be a factor as these characteristics are innate and have nothing to do with performance, and or capability.

Organizations are made up of people and if you think people don’t have biases when they are hiring for positions, please take a look at your damn white privileged life. I was let go for a plain and simple reason that my boss favored my white counterpart, he did everything in his power to make sure that happened. I have no proof, and so have no case, can only hope karma catches up to all of these folks. But somehow the oppressor class always flourishes.

I’m a white male, and I was displaced, I guess that was my white privilege?

I live in the suburbs, have a father, and 3 Degrees...how do I overcome that interview question in front of Tom, Steve, and Jimbo?

Were your counterparts People of color?
I am a female, a WOC and a consistently high performer and tenured, and was targeted. Lars has the gall to sit there after destroying lives, which is a small number to them and tout how wonderful Novo is. Laughable

No offense but you must really suck or really, really below average. No way you are supposed to be in that position. You must have fucked up in life at some point.

here is a secret. No one cares. Organizations only say this to keep the insane media mob away.
Think about it this way. Your favorite team needs to get better and compete. If they just fill the roster with everyone color/race/accent/sex preference they Will lose because they can’t compete. The talent isnt there. Inside they could feel good about themselves, but they would lose fans, games, and revenue.
This is the same way companies behave and act because they have to compete against other companies. If the goal is to compete and drive revenue it’s focus should be on talent.

we all have had a bad counterpart some time in our career, and it’s no fun. Why would you want to fill the whole company full of those bad performers or untalented individuals?

Focus on your community and get many, many more of them to be like you instead of how those communities currently are accepting fatherlessness, lack of education, and crime as well as blatant dislike of those different than them. Does that help, LeBron?

Why are white males given the benefit of the doubt and assumed to be top performers and talented?

My community doesn’t have that. However, my territory consists of rural people on welfare and on Meth. I cringe going in those offices as they dip and are just overall dirty. Very poor.

no one said that
Our company wants and needs performers. No matter race or sex. promoting and giving people who don’t earn things because they are part of a “class” does nothing to make us better. Charity is for other areas of life.

THERE ARE NO HISPANICS OR ASIANS IN UPPER MANAGEMENT in any part of NNI. Shocking?

Same here man. Will only get worse. Those people are lobbying Biden/Harris to have a Civil Rights Diversity Czar position in the Cabinet. Not saying Biden won election, but just imagine having to interview in front of a Hiring Panel of all POC. It will be game over for us.

All the statistics and overwhelming evidence must be wrong then. I’m sure the fatherlessness, crime, and victimization as well as passed on dislike of other cultures must not exist because it’s not in your community

I hated my time at Novo. A place full of racists. Now I am in a position where I am able to influence patients and providers not to use Novo products or switch from them. Everyday I am able to convince a patient or a provider is a great day.
