17. As workplaces become more diverse, employers are encouraged to take note of communication, training, recruiting practices and management. Diverse workforces may be plagued with problems if employees aren't equipped with the knowledge they need to communicate effectively with their coworkers, regardless of their differences. Diversity training can help reduce interpersonal conflicts within a company. As a result of efforts to train employees on diversity issues, management may see an increase in training and development costs. Allbusiness.com , an online resource for entrepreneurs, notes some businesses believe that costs of diversity are higher than its benefits because of potential issues with communication and training.
