Exam #1 12 Oral grade: Gradk () 9.8 12 16/12/2019 Part 1: Reading Comprehension: Diversity in the top jobs will benefit the whole society. Black and ethnic minorities want to succeed on their own merits. We need to understand what is stopping them. 8.5/10 1 A traditional approach to nurturing talent is needed for a modern workforce. For far too long, executive positions in both the private and public sectors have been the preserve of white males. I therefore welcome the interventions by Sir Peter Fahy, who leads the Greater Manchester Police, and business secretary Vince Cable that we need greater diversity in important positions across the country. Sir Peter's call becomes more 5 urgent when you consider that only six chief officers in the police are from non-white backgrounds. When writing to the seven FTSE 100 companies that still do not even have a woman on their board, Dr Cable made it clear that people from different backgrounds bring with them fresh perspectives. A lot has changed in the 20 years since my son, Stephen, was murdered but a lot more needs to happen. The UK will only reach its full potential when everyone, irrespective of their background, truly believes that they 10 can make it.

there is still not enough diversity in senior roles. Research has found that even those people from black and minority ethnic (BME) background who manage to get jobs in professional occupations can often struggle to progress up the career ladder despite suitable qualification and experience. In 2010, only 4.1% of directors in FTSE 100 companies came from ethnic minority backgrounds Statistics show that 15 black university graduates can expect a 24% pay penalty after they leave university. This is not only a British problem. In the US, only 13 black executives have ever made it to the top of a Fortune 500 company. Only six of them are currently active. While we welcome Sir Peter's understanding that it is important to have more officers from ethnic minority backgrounds, we have found that the vast majority of black people do not want affirmative action. They, and i 20 other ethnic minorities, want to work in environments where they are assessed on their merit, rather than having people believe they only secured their jobs because of the colour of their skin. We need to examine what gets in the way when people try to succeed on their own merits but are not as successful as they would have hoped or their paper qualifications would suggest. They may not have the confidence to believe they can do a role. They may not even aspire to a specific profession in the first place. They might be the first person they know to have "made it", which means they will not have the in-built network that their peers may have grown up with And sometimes they will look at an industry, not see 25 anyone in it who looks like them, and decide to walk away from it It is not just about getting into a job in the first place it is also about how people are supported to stay and progress. I have had plenty of people tell me how difficult and excluding they found the culture of their workplace. They have told me that they felt overlooked for promotion and worked extra hard to get to where they are From The Observer, by Doreen Lawrence, Stephen Lawrence's mother, 2 February 2013 Read the text.

At the first look we can see two by women walking away of each other. Both women are looking at each other in an arrogant way. In the background we can see a wall. made of bricks with bushes on it. At first glance the woman on the left hand side seems to be western due to her outward appearance.. She is wearing high heels and big earings. Except sunglasses and a bikini she is not wearing any clothes. We get the feeling she is a tourist on her way to the beach because of the bag she is carrying. In contrast to her, the woman on the right-hand side seems to be a Muslim of an eastern country. Her body is fully covered by traditional muslim clothes. If we look at the speach bubbles we can find out that they are both thinking bad of each other because of the prejudices they have (got) due to their different outward appearance Z L L Where does this come from?

Most of the time stereotypes just appear because of our lack of knowledge.
