Discussion:This week you read the case study: Making the Right Moves? The NFL and Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion in Coach and Executive Hiring. You are also completing a communication plan activity that will be part of your Week 9 assignment.
Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion (DEI) programs can enhance organizations’ competitive position and brand perception. In the case study you are asked to assume the role of a consultant in helping to make the NFL’s commitments around DEI impactful and effectively communicating their resolve in enacting organizational change.
How can the NFL foster a culture that actively supports and promotes the growth of minority and women coaches and executives within the organization? Support your response with specific examples from the case study.
Discuss 2 communication strategies you would recommend to the NFL to discover unconscious bias and create buy-in for DEI efforts.
How might you use this approach when implementing DEI principles for your chosen company?
Provide a substantive response to one or more of your classmates. Classmate post Hello Everyone,
First, I would like to say I was extremely upset reading this week’s case study. Reading about unethical behaviors, discrimination, and being mistreated is something that African American people will continue to encounter for the rest of their lives. I thought football was about athletes competing against one another to see who is the better team but based on this case study that only applied if the coach was white. Troy Vincent, Executive Vice President of Football Operations, talked about “a double standard,” noting the firing of several Black head coaches and how they are undervalued and underrepresented in the league.
FIRED COACHES

Jim Caldwell following a winning season in Detroit.
Steve Wilks, after a single year.
Brian Flores challenged the NFL in 2022 by filing a lawsuit stating that “the league has discriminated against him and other Black coaches for racial reasons, denying them positions as head coaches, offensive and defensive coordinators, and quarterbacks’ coaches, as well as general managers”. The Flores lawsuit also references the NFL’s poor record on promoting key subordinate coaches and NFL executives and the lack of diversity in team ownership. In 2003 The Rooney Rule was put in place. It required every team with a head coaching vacancy to interview one or more of what they term “diverse” candidates.
In 2022 “Women” has been added to the language of the Rooney Rule at all levels and the NFL has distributed a mission statement to media that encourages prospective non-white ownership groups to join in pursuing NFL franchise ownership. (PLEASE KEEP IN MIND THIS WAS ONLY 2 YEARS AGO! IT TOOK THIS LONG FOR WOMEN TO BE NOTICED! I CAN NOT WRAP MY MIND AROUND “WOMEN ADDED TO THE LANGUAGE”).
The NFL needs to promote, sponsor, and develop programs that will give women the training they need to succeed in the NFL. Female coaches paired with experienced leaders give women structure to build their careers in the league. Collaborating with different colleges and universities can promote the growth of minorities and women and attract potential candidates. The NFL Workplace Diversity Committee needs to hold all teams accountable for DEI progress and include all employees in training on unconscious bias. Also keep track of hiring, firing, promoting, and retaining minorities. Set DEI goals and make the necessary adjustments if needed. I would also use this approach for my company because I can establish specific measurable goals for DEI initiatives and highlight its benefits. The true definition of success is a mixture of race, gender, and religion. Diversity is the key!

How can a fashion retailer that was once the source for wardrobe staples such as chinos and white t-shirts suddenly lose its marketing edge? Motorola also fell victim to its own success. The company’s Razr cell phone was a huge hit, but Motorola struggled to leverage that success. Google acquired Motorola Mobility but then sold it to Lenovo in 2014. Also, Starbucks former CEO Howard Shultz warned that his company and brand risked becoming commoditized. And, as noted in Case 1-3 of the textbook, some industry observers say that Apple “lost its cool” (Green & Keegan, 2020, p.29). For your initial post, Pick from one of the six companies named above. From a global marketing standpoint, use all the six terms or theories listed above to explain your analysis of their global marketing failure or decline. Throughout your initial post, bold and underline each of the six terms and theories you use to make them easy to identify. Assume you were consulted as the global marketing expert to make recommendations to management of that company. Analyze your top two recommendations. Your initial discussion post should be 250 words. Do not forget to cite your textbook and any other sources used to support your ideas, including visual sources.

I live in a house with seven other women, so being respectful is a big thing. We all come from different backgrounds and go through different situations daily. So everyone is not going to be on the same page. It is important to be respectful of others. This makes a happier household when you can be aware of other’s situations. I always give respect where respect is due. It is very polite to have manners. I was raised to treat people how you would like to be treated and be considerate.
