HOW DID WE GET HERE?

In addition to examining whether there is diversity within the total workforce, Federal agencies are required to explore all levels of the workforce to determine if EEO groups have the same opportunities for career advancement.

Barriers that address the most significant milestones within an employee's careerpath are:

Glass Ceiling (SES Level)

Blocked Pipelines (Senior Grades)

Glass Walls (Mission-Critical Occupations)

~U.S.NRC BARRIERS TO CAREER ADVANCEMENT MD-715 requires agencies to take proactive steps to ensure EEO for all their employees and applicants by regularly evaluating employment practices to identify and eliminate barriers that hamper advancement of any racial or ethnic group in federal agencies.

Glass Ceiling (SES Level)

A glass ceiling exists when a particular EEO group cannot reach the executive level of leadership in an organization, despite their presence in positions that comprise the feeder pool for executive Blocked Pipelines (Senior Grades)

EEO groups may encounter obstacles in the grade levels prior to the executive level positions. This situation is referred to as the "blocked pipeline." A blocked pipeline occurs when people who are in upwardly mobile occupations fail to reach the senior grade levels within those occupations.

Glass Walls (Mission*

Critical Occupations)

Some EEO groups experience a glass wall because they are unable to obtain employment in the major occupations of the agency.

rtU.S.NRC DISCUSSION QUESTIONS

1) Are there opportunities to advance to the SES level?
2) What is the immediate feeder pool for promotions to SES?
3) Does it include GG-14/GG-15 employees?
4) How much opportunity currently exists for the advancement of women and people of color?
5) Is there a mentoring program focused on upward mobility to SES level?
6) What are the retention and promotion obstacles confronting employees who bring diversity to the organization?
7) What are the challenges and what steps are necessary to address them?
8) What are the grade levels, or occupations in which the participation rates of the various EEO groups decline? What are the contributing factors?
9) What are the participation rates of EEO groups in each major occupation to their availability in the occupational Civilian Labor Force?
10) What disparities, if any, are revealed by an analysis of the applicant flow data for new hires and competitive promotions for those occupations?

Office of Small Business and Civil Rights

s JourneyingToward Creating a Diverse and Inclusive Culture The demographics of today's workplace continues to change rapidly. Almost every organization looks different in terms of who's employed and the positions they hold. Managers must strive to balance cultural diversity and employee well-being with the productivity needed to meet the organization's mission and strategic goals.

~

The 2018 Gallup report defines diversity as the full spectrum of human differences.

~

Whereas Cultural Diversity is defined as people with distinctly different world views and a sense of self resulting from practicing the norms, laws, taboos, rituals, beliefs shared and experienced by members of a group.

~

The Gallup report asserts, "Inclusion refers to a cultural and environmental feeling of belonging. It can be assessed as the extent to which employees are valued, respected, accepted and encouraged to fully participate in the organization."

> The Gallup report contends recognizing that D&I are very different is the first step in the journey toward creating a uniquely diverse and inclusive workplace culture.

  • Determining the Need for Diversity and Ways to Create an Open Work Environment Income I.anguagr and C'..ommunicadon Skills The work environment plays a big role in determining whether an office can maximize the benefits of its diversi.

> An Open Environment for Diversity requires: 1) collaboration and support, and 2) encourages everyone to reach their full potential.

> The level of management's openness helps determine the level of the office's openness.

> Leaders (you) help create office culture.

~

Leaders lead by doing (example); how they behave sets the tone for the entire office.

~

Leaders can't do it alone. To make diversity work, other employees must take responsibility for working towards common goals and shared Office of Small Business and Civil Rights

7 Working to Achieve a Critical Mass to Create the Desired Reaction The ideal office environment is one where everyone treats each other with respect, actively listens to each other, includes each other in conversations, and uses each others unique qualities to achieve the mission and shared vision.

~

If enough people in a diverse office do learn and use good communication skills1 the office will realize the potential benefits of diversity.

~

When enough people model good behavior; enough people will feel they are valued, enough teamwork will improve, and enough conflict will be resolved in a beneficial manner and the office will be more productive.

~

As people see the benefits of good communication, they will try to communicate in a similar manner.

Encouraging Leadership at Every Level When people feel respected and know their input will be appreciated and potentially used, they will take on leadership roles even if they are not in leadership positions.

Those in management can help their office by modeling, mentoring, and coaching to develop leadership at all levels and create an office that benefits from its diversity.

9 Understanding Diversity and Practicing Diversity Skills is an Ongoing learning Process Geia Ahoj Ho/a Hello Ciao Hoi Salut Servu.s Bok Hallo I

In order to model, mentor, and coach we need to continually work on our skills especially when these skills are practiced in a diverse workplace.

~

Understanding diversity and realizing its benefits.

> Keys to benefiting from diversity are self-awareness and understanding people's differences.

~

If there are people differences, Leaders must be prepared for the unexpected, ready to anticipate the new twist, and watch out for the potential of misunderstanding.

~

Take responsibility for not assuming that what is not immediately known is not knowable.

> Be sure that you understand communication, how to take a leadership role, and know how to help others do the same.
