Which one to use, for example or however?

Hello,
I have a question that bothers me. please look at the paragraph.


One of the things needed for managing diversity and multiculturalism in an organization is understanding the nature and meaning of them. Some managers, ______, have taken the basic concepts of equal employment to an unnecessary extreme. They know that they cannot discriminate against people on the basis of gender, race, and so forth. Thus, they come to believe they must treat everyone the same. But this belief can cause problems when translated into workplace behaviors among people, because people are not the same. Although people need to be treated fairly, managers must understand that differences among people do exist. Thus any effort to treat everyone the same, without regard for their fundamental human differences, will lead only to problems. Managers must understand that cultural factors cause people to behave in different ways and that these differences should be accepted.



Which one do you think is more appropriate?
(A)for example (B) however
