Abstract

Although discrimination is an important issue in the workplace, few instructional resources raise students' awareness of its existence or how to develop responses to it. This article provides background material on discrimination in the workplace, a case study, and a group exercise designed to help students understand its causes and consequences. An unusual case is introduced, in which a company's chief executive officer is excluded from an industry-wide social club because she is female. Based on this case, the authors have developed an interactive group and class exercise. The article concludes by providing guidelines for class discussion and debriefing.
