I’m not a huge fan of how-to posts online, but “Tips on Crafting Essays on Diversity in the Workplace” was too good to ignore. I came across it when I was researching the topic and found surprisingly sound advice. For one, I like the idea of using statistics liberally, especially to highlight trends over time, as it’s the only way to illustrate changes or lack thereof. And while I don’t necessarily agree that quotes are the best hooks to draw the readers’ attention, I know the value of the first sentence or two and admit the need to ensure the beginning of the narration is memorable and striking. “Tips on Crafting Essays on Diversity” is also one of the few articles online that follows its own suggestion of using clear language and avoiding ambitious wording and redundancies. It was a breath of fresh air in this regard. All in all, this post at smartbusinessdaily.com is a solid guide on writing about workplace diversity issues, though the tips can just as easily be transferred to any topic or subject you have to cover in high school or college. Check it out, and you won’t regret it.
