Learn about various legal and practical topics which directly relate to employing a multicultural workplace.
This topic highlights how to communicate effectively with a culturally diverse workforce in order to increase business productivity; capitalize on workers' strengths; avoid common pitfalls employers make; understand cultural differences and implement effective policies that take into consideration these differences; and appreciate the different methods of recruitment to ensure successful diversity. Multicultural communication explores not only what happens when people of two different cultures meet, but also what happens when people from a variety of cultures and ethnicities come together in one organization, community, or country. In order to be effective in working with the emerging workforce, managers and executives must consider and appreciate the cultural differences. Effective intercultural organizations understand the differences in how people from a variety of cultures act, communicate, and perceive the world around them. Culture has a large impact on how people conduct business; therefore, cultural implications are critical for succeeding in an international context.
