Diversity index

organisation’s success and competitiveness relies upon its capability to accept diversity and understand the benefits that are associated with it. Diversity in the work place refers to the numerous differences between people in an organisation, it involves race, gender, ethnic group, demographics, and much more. There are many benefits to multicultural teams in business, such as the variety of view points that come with a diversity of personalities, concepts, and skills that consequently, allow…

Episode I watched was on diversity where Michael Scott, the office manager for Dunder Mifflin Paper Company, holds his own version of what diversity training should be. The show is a spoof on what life is like in an office in America where a camera crew documents the behaviors that go on in the office. While this show was supposed to be a comedy I actually didn’t think it was particularly funny and took offense to the humor. I learned that even…

Problem What is the aquatic health of the Nequasset lake tributaries as analyzed through chemical and biological parameters as well as physical habitat assessment? What factors, both natural and human-influenced, contribute (positively or negatively) to the health of the Nequasset lake tributaries? Background Information Weather or not we realize it, as people that (presumably) live in the Bath area, the streams that flow into Nequasset are very important to our survival. They are numerous, and…

Discussion To understand the functional diversity, composition, structure and dynamics of rhizospheric diazotrophs communities under sugarcane-legume intercropping, we carried out this study to examine the effect of different cultivation systems on the stability of the soil properties and rhizospheric diazotrophs. Previous studies have investigated that soil microbial diversity, soil enzyme activities and crop yield could be affected by land management practices and all these soil properties…

The migration effectiveness index values vary between -100 and +100. The high (negative or positive) values indicate that net migration is an efficient mechanism for population redistribution. Conversely, values closer to zero signify that migration flows are more closely balanced…

In Stillwell J and Philips D article ‘Diversity and Change: Understanding the Ethnic Geographies of Leeds’ (2006), they investigated the state of the ethnic segregation in Leeds by looking at the distribution and composition of ethnic minorities in community areas within Leeds to see whether Leeds is becoming more segregated. Firstly, the writer describes the ethnic composition in Leeds using census data from 2001. Around 8.2% of people are non-whites which is lower than the national average of…

However, an important variable of vegetation is its floristic diversity and dominance. Ecological value of the plant species (IVI) influences in a great extent the biomass of an ecosystem and hence carbon stocks. Importance Value Index (IVI) is a measure of how dominant a species is in a given forest area. It is a standard tool used by foresters to inventory a forest. Foresters generally do not inventory…

recall on two nonconsecutive days within a two week period using the HELENA-DIAT (Dietary Assessment Tool). A Diet Quality Index for Adolescents (DQI-A) was developed from the data collected and diet quality of each individual was calculated. DQI-A score was based on the average of three components expressed in percentages, which included dietary equilibrium, dietary diversity, and dietary quality. A higher score was equated to a higher diet quality. Physical activity was assessed using…

We surveyed six CP-42 Pollinator habitat sites and collected plant density data for analysis. Next, we developed a model based on availability of nectar resources throughout the season, plant diversity, and plant density to formulate a Floral Resource Index (FRI) score. We then calculated the FRI for each of the six sites. FRI scores ranged from 51.3 to 69.9 out of a maximum score of 100. Most sites had high density during the mid-summer bloom period and inadequate numbers…

Theoretical Foundation As an organization the Girl Scouts of Western Washington are concerned about their diversity, because their organization is not incredibly diverse, they are not serving all of the populations that they could. Participation in the Girl Scouts can be life changing for some, for instance more women who are politicians, CEOs, congresswomen, astronauts, and other leaders in the US were scouts than who were not (Chávez, 2016). The Girl Scouts’ main goal is to empower, educated,…
