Here are the top companies promoting diversity for minority women in the workplace

Some of these companies’ methods included unconscious bias training for leaders, mentorships, partnerships with diversity organizations and leadership acceleration programs for minority women.

“In my experience, companies get really excited over an increment,” Billings-Harris said. “When you brag that you have, 10 percent of a group in management, it’s not something to celebrate to the degree that they often do.” One such study was conducted by University of Michigan researcher Scott Page, who proved that diverse groups were better, more creative problem solvers than homogenous groups.“By 2050, we will be a minority-majority country,” said Barry. “White folks will be less than 50 percent of the country. If that is a fact, and 50 percent of those non-white folks are women, how can you afford to miss out on them?”Companies that made the list use strict metrics and accountability tools, according to Barry.

I rather see the best person get the job, regardless of race and gender, but I guess that's just me...

How about promote the best performing employees? That's racist? Ok, nevermind.

Let me ask all of my tweeps: how does demographic diversity help a business? Different ideas? Are you saying a different gender or race will have different ideas in business decisions? How do?

Companies I will no longer use.
