Running Head: DIVERSITY IN JOHNSON & JOHNSON CO. 1 Diversity in Johnson & Johnson Co. Jayde Bachman Empire State College Author Note This proposal was prepared for Diversity in the Workplace, BME-213164-05-13SP1, taught by Dr. Robin 2 Abstract I have decided to conduct my audit on Johnson & Johnson because it is a company that I am familiar with. I use their products on a daily basis and feel that their products are a part of every household. I am curious how Johnson & Johnson has created a diverse company through every aspect of diversity.
