Using a local community or city as a “live” business case study students will explore the concepts of diversity and inclusivity and the impact on current business practices. The course examines the intersections of race, gender, and ethnicity in organizations by providing students the opportunity to meet with local business leaders and community stakeholders. Students will study the historical context of race relations in the United States to better understand the demographic changes of today’s workforce. The course is designed to be discussion based and writing intensive. Students will follow an action research methodology where they will develop research questions, collect and analyze data, and share their findings with the community in which they are working.
