| Abstract | Valuing diversity emphasizes the awareness, recognition, understanding, and appreciation of human differences and revolves around creating an inclusive environment in which everyone feels esteemed. This generally takes place through a series of management education and training programs that attempt to improve interpersonal relationships among workers by asking participants to become more tolerant--generally understood today as an approval and acceptance of others' practices, opinions, and beliefs. Because tolerance is such a highly desirable quality in U.S. society, and seemingly one of its few non-controversial values, rarely is its significance questioned. Nevertheless, contemporary interpretations of tolerance may be problematic for multicultural programs. Tolerance understood as respect and civility toward others is offered as a more appropriate and effective tool for easing hostile tensions between individuals and groups and for helping communities move past intractable conflict.
