<strong>Misstep 2: Being disrespectful to diversity.</strong>

"It is no longer acceptable to <a href="http://money.usnews.com/money/careers/slideshows/how-to-leverage-generational-diversity">disregard the diversity</a>  we value in our companies today, whether generational, gender,  geographic, cultural, religious, etc. Major career missteps occur  between the four generations in our workplace today, our globally  diverse and often matrixed organizations, or gender differences in work  style. Examples of behaviors that have hurt careers: Calling meetings on  Saturdays, which is a day of rest for many cultures. Or excluding  certain people from important business conversations because of their  geographic location or need to work from home on a given day."
