managing diversity
creating an inclusive equitable working environment in which employees from all backgrounds are engaged and respected in order to ensure that all can perform to their full potential
When people from multiple cultures have to work together, difficulties or misunderstandings may occur as a result of language issues or because of differences in attitudes, beliefs and competences. Managing diversity within these teams requires awareness of such differences, in order to create a work environment in which differences are addressed or valued and workers can perform to their full potential.
