and then write a report to ownership that provides an initial analysis of the business and completes the requirements below.
Your report should accomplish the following:

  • After viewing the employee profiles section, explain a minimum of two observations that you’ve made (positive or negative) on the micro level and their potential impact on the organizational behavior of the company. Pay particular attention to surface level diversity instead of the personality scores.
  • After viewing the employee profiles section, explain a minimum of two observations that you’ve made (positive or negative) on the meso level and their potential impact on the organizational behavior of the company. Think about possible groups that may work together and consider potential behaviors.
  • After viewing the company policy section, explain a minimum of two observations that you’ve made (positive or negative) on the macro level and their potential impact on the organizational behavior of the company.
  • Provide an opinion on the level of dissimilarity (high, medium, or low) that you see within NoJax’s surface level diversity. Explain if you believe the current level has a positive or negative impact on organizational behavior and detail how you came to that conclusion.
