We see a conflict throughout the process of business operations between the management objective of decision-makers such as yourselves and the issue of taking care of human capital–meaning labor resources of individuals as employees. On the one hand, each business manager has an ethical obligation and fiduciary duty to internally assist companies with their operations to make a profit. Yet, these internal obligations often spill outside the company and could violate labor laws where managers allow bias and limited planning to hamper the promotion of hiring a diverse and talented resource pool of employees.Discuss in no less than twelve hundred words and no more than twelve hundred fifty words how business managers might consider operational structures to guide and assist with promoting diversity in the workplace.
