Idea Solution

Diversity issues fall into three main categories.
1. First category is stereotyping. Stereotyping is the attribution of thoughts, qualities, behaviors, and attitudes to others based on their categorization into a social group.

2. Second category includes considerations of culture. This category includes considerations of culture. It includes issues of language difference, cultural values, and frames of reference, and cultural attitude towards conflict, negotiation, and conflict resolution.

3. Third category of diversity issue is the issue of power. Power problems in diversity conflict include the dis-empowerment of particular social groups and the existence of bigotry and prejudice based on social group membership.
These categories frequently influence one another.
