A Harvard Business Review article titled “Creating Space for Religious Diversity at Work” highlights ways companies may respect those with different religions in their workplace. The authors identified two principles to help build what they call an “elastic hybrid organization.”
The first principle includes cultivating vagueness around how the organization’s purpose relates to religious practice. An example might be a logo with Christian symbolism while still aesthetically appealing to others.
In 1 Corinthians 10, Paul wrote, “Give no offense to Jews or to Greeks or to the church of God, just as I try to please everyone in everything I do, not seeking my own advantage, but that of many, that they may be saved.”
A workplace full of diverse religions may need creative ways to please everyone to save some.
