The company I chose to work with and around is Nike, and this is a
company that I would say is a model for diversity. i Nike has a very clear
policy around the company, and they make good on what they say
based on their activities. The company invested over 400 million dollars
into communities around the country, 130 million of which went
towards advancing equality! (Nike) I see this as a clear initiative that
shows Nike is one of the companies at the front of the battle for
diversity. A good way to ensure having a diverse team is to have a hiring
team that is diverse in its self! If your company has values that preach
the need for diversity, then the company should also ensure that they
are adhering to their values from the top to bottom of the company.
Nike has the Until We All Win initiative that is trying to get equality
seen in all major cities, and especially in sports! Nike has a good CSR
stance as well, with a statement from the CEO saying how powerful a
shared purpose can be. Nike has a long list of sustainable development
goals, and number one and two are no poverty and no hunger. (Nike
Purpose) This is a company looking to make sure the entire world is
included and has what it needs. My product, the Nike Western Saddle
and Tack Set, helps include anyone who wants to be an equestrian get a
jump start in a sport they may not have ever dreamed of competing in
due to the cost. Keeping prices low while keeping quality high is the
name of the Nike Western game!
