“...The Third World is a model of failure...”

It is a disaster to bring its denizens here and to promote them to positions of authority, as you aptly said.

Interestingly enough, Ayaan Hirsi Ali makes this point in her book. However!!! she still buys into the liberal nonsense even though her life itself is an example of trying to escape the failed cultures.

It is impossible to wake these people up.

The old white boys at Coopers & Lybrand (now PricewaterhouseCoopers) were quite good at promoting hard-working women. Trouble is that they had their unspoken quota and they had some less-stellar managers as well. If you were a hard-working woman working for the former, you had a good career ahead of you. If you worked for the latter, you were a rival and a threat and your life would become a living hell.

By the way, for all the years I worked there (over a decade), I had many managers, project leaders and group leaders, and I worked for one white guy the entire time. Two if you count the time I was loaned out to another department for a few weeks.

As far as I concerned EVERYONE of these surveys I ever took were worthless, Anonymous or not. The big wigs already had the answer(s) they were looking for, the survey(s) were put out as a “cover” and rarely matched what they were looking for.

How do I know, we got together once and answered the survey exactly the same. What was reported back was pure BS.

Thanks Altura Ct.
How are white male managers doing when it comes to diversity? Great! At least that's what the white male managers said in a recent survey. What do the non-white, non-male managers think? Not as upbeat.
Gosh, never saw that coming.

The steady downward spiral of US business and industry since LBJ imposed EOE is just a weird coincidence.

The truth is, if any manager runs his business based on leveling the “diversity stage” instead of getting the job done and making profits, the business is probably going to fail anyway. Ask Detroit.

My company used to do quarterly surveys about how the employees “felt” about their jobs and work environment. At first the responses where anonymous, and flaws in the management could be seen. So, one day management announced the surveys would no longer be anonymous, but would instead have our names on them. They said it was the only way to find and fix the problems. I told the boss (in a meeting of about 100 people) that if the goal was to eliminate the flaws, it was a perfect plan because a person would have to be drop-dead stupid to indicate anything less than a 100% perfect score for any and all questions asked.

Who in the heck wants to put their livelihood on the line just to help a middle-manager meet a goal?

After that, sure enough all the surveys started coming back with perfect scores, and the whole survey thing was dropped within a year.

Imagine where we would be without white men. We would all be living in mud huts if not for their contribution to society.
That’s just a fact.

If diversity for the sake of having diversity is such a great idea why don’t we have more diversity in the NFL and NBA?

White Males know that “diversity” is code for “Whitey need not apply” and is therefore racist BS.

Good post. The fact that management first went with the anonymous approach and then flipped to wanting names shows they didn’t know what they were doing in the first place. In the world of business, anything you say can and WILL be held against you.

Correct. This was over 20 years ago and I was just a pup, wet behind the ears, and I knew better than to complain in that environment.

It was a very large company, and the CEO, a third generation owner, ran it into he ground.
