DIVERSITY AND OPTIMIZATION IN NIGERIA: THE WORKPLACE INTRICACIES (original) (raw)
2023, . International Journal of Novel Research in Marketing Management and Economics
The optimization of corporate processes in a demographically diversified enclave as Nigeria was the intent of this Paper. Despite the heightened expectations of firms in the productive sectors of the economy, not much appears to have been accomplished in Nigeria, a country with many diversely talented people with multifarious levels of ingenuity. To fill the apparent lacuna in literature nd constructively make contributions to the research areas of diversity and workplace optimization, primary data was gathered via a survey tool with a scale akin to Likert's 5-point scale. Information was gathered from forty-six respondents, representing the firms established for productive purposes in two South-South states in Nigeria. The analysed data using the Spearman Rank Order Correlation Coefficient at the 0.01 level of significance revealed that firms do not operate at optimal levels due to ineffective management of surface and deep-level diversity. It was suggested that managers should make it imperative that workers are absolutely unconcerned about issues of diversity as stated in this paper for maximum optimization of corporate processes and outcomes.
