Starting at the Root: An Observation About EmployNeutral

Starting at the Root: An Observation About EmployNeutral 

doing this project I found that a big issue with creating an innovation isn’t so much determining the problem that you want to solve, it's often times determining which part of the problem to address that would evoke the most change. It’s hard to focus on a problem long enough to figure out where the root of the problem is and how to fix it. What is easy is to create the mindset that you can create this brilliant thing that can tackle everything. It’s easy to address the problem at large throw out a few solutions, but avoid ever really going in depth. The sad part about that logic is that it's impossible- well to be more specific the logic that the gadget can evoke effect change by being broad and not attacking specific issues is impossible. It may can address everything, but something can be addressed without ever being offered a solution. 

It is in making this realization that I can really look at the project creation that I believe to be the most effective one so far.  EmployNeutral doesn't try to fix the issue of worker discrimination entirely, instead it focuses solely on the roots of it thus evoking change from the bottom that eventually making it's way throughout the workplace. By focusing on the beginning stages of the employment process, the program is able to help eliminate the most basic forms of discrimination. By creating a fair playing field for job applicant solely based on their merit, the chances of creating a diverse and creative workplace amplify. If a more diverse group of applicants are chosen, then discrimination company wide can be diminished and easier to spot out and stop if ever its made present. 

The actions of the site may seem small, but in all actuality it's overall impact is large.
