Devoted to Managers and those that seek to improve their management skills

With the growing diversity of religions in the workplace, companies are being forced to adapt to numerous new challenges that they have to face.

Now in the case of managers that use their religious principles to run a company, "lawyers say it's generally not a problem to run a public company on faith-based principles, as long as the executives make those principles clear to shareholders, and make sure they don't follow faith to the exclusion of investor interests."

Some opponents say that including religion in the management realm can alienate people that have other belief systems.

While federal law doesn't allow promotion or hiring to be based upon religion, religious views can be expressed by employers, with the understanding that those of different beliefs don't feel unwelcome or pressured in any way. Dianna Johnston, assistant legal counsel for the U.S. Equal Employment Opportunity Commission said, "It's pretty much a balancing act."

The problem with this is that anybody could say that they feel unwelcome or pressured if they don't believe in the principles the business is run by if it's consciously and verbally connected to their beliefs in God.

It seems to me that the best route to take here is to live by the principles, rather than try to explain where they come from and why they're being used. If someone is interested in the where and why, they can always be communicated with off of company time and away from the workplace.

This would keep the importance and values that are part of a business, without it being connected to any specific religious system.

Is there another way of doing it that you see would work better?
