Diversity

To me diversity is putting more variety into a subject. That subject may be your backyard, friends, workplace, etc.  By having diversity in your life it is going to able you to be more open to new adventures. I come from a real small town where there is little to no diversity. Everyone had the same interests and mostly the same hobbies, most days were the same as the day before and the next. With this limited diversity it was strange for me to try new things because it was out of the norm and my comfort level. For an example, my girlfriend comes from a large town filled with diversity. The first time I went to here hometown I felt akward because it was so different. Even when it came to chosing a place to eat there was such a variety of choices I chose the place that I was familiar with.
I know diverisity is important and a huge role in the work force today. I do want to start my own business some day and the more diverse my costumers are is going to make an impact on how diverse in need my employees to be. Like stated in class the smartest and most qualified applicant is not always the right choice for the position.
